Small nonprofits find ways to connect with big foundations
At the September Catapult pitch event sponsored by the Community Foundation, a little girl came up carrying her violin. She learned to play it through Detroit Youth Volume, one of a dozen charities seeking support. Her playing was memorable and showed impact, Jones said.
Despite her lovely piece, three other organizations were chosen for coaching and financial support: Atlantic Impact, Detroit Horse Power and Trans Sistas of Color Project, a tangible reminder of just how competitive seeking foundation support really is.
