ConnectMichigan Alliance Endowment
A helping hand, a listening ear; an hour in a busy week. You see it when a college student engages in community building, when a child helps clean up a river; when a senior citizen reads to a hospice patient. often, the most difficult part of getting involved is knowing where to go to get started. The answer to that question is easy - Michigan Nonprofit Association with the support of the ConnectMichigan Alliance Endowment. It's where volunteerism comes together. Working as one, we can improve the quality of life for our citizens as never before. The power of positive change is in each of us.
The mission of the ConnectMichigan Alliance Endowmnet is to promote and strengthen a life-long ethic of service and civic engagement through the support of community-building initiatives. We are thankful to the 227 organizations and individuals who
established the ConnectMichigan Alliance, a permanent support
organization for volunteerism in
Michigan though the creation of a public/private endowment. As good
stewards of the endowment, our board and staff work tirelessly to use
our precious financial and human resources responsibly and
innovatively, with a balanced blend of vision and practicality.
As the ConnectMichigan Alliance endowment provides a limited level
of stability, our state’s needs continue to mount. Local nonprofit and
community-based organizations who rely on volunteers to function seek
training, resources and networking which are valuable to creating a
vibrant and strong nonprofit sector. We invite others to become
financial contributors to the long-term health of Michigan’s volunteer
community by supporting the ConnectMichigan Alliance.
