Grants fund programs. Skills-based volunteering builds the organizations behind them.
Financial grants provide critical resources, but a nonprofit's capacity to execute—across strategy, HR, finance, marketing, and technology—is what sustains their mission. Catchafire makes it possible for foundations to close this operational gap, ensuring they can meet the demanding and changing needs of nonprofits and the communities they serve.
Multiply the impact of every grant
Nonprofits report up to 8x the value of a grant when paired with Catchafire's skilled volunteers.
Tailored capacity building at scale
Give all your grantees access to pro bono strategy, finance, HR, tech, and marketing support — no extra program staff needed.
A complement to grantmaking
Embed Catchafire before, during, or after a grant cycle to build lasting grantee capacity at every stage.
Clear ROI reporting
Real-time dashboards show exactly how grantees are using capacity building support, with data exportable for your reporting.
