The Community Foundation of Greater Greensboro is proud to support the Guilford Nonprofit Consortium, which brings together nonprofit professionals across Guilford County to foster collaboration, share resources, and strengthen the organizations serving our community.

Recently, the Consortium and Leadership Greensboro hosted a board matching event connecting 15 member nonprofit organizations with local volunteers interested in giving back. As Mary Herbenick, Director of the Guilford Nonprofit Consortium, explained, the event gives community leaders an opportunity to meet with nonprofits, explore ways to serve, and connect their skills and talents with organizations that need them. Through five-minute conversations with each organization, participants could discover meaningful opportunities to make a difference in our community.

Our support of initiatives like the Guilford Nonprofit Consortium reflects the Community Foundation’s commitment to building a stronger, more connected nonprofit sector in Greensboro and Guilford County. To learn more about the Consortium, visit guilfordnonprofits.org.
