Support Kansas City presents at 2015 Building Opportunities Conference in Vancouver

What better way to inaugurate the Shared Services section of our newsletter than to express our excitement about SKC being invited to present in June our shared services model at the 2015 Building Opportunities Conference in Vancouver, BC. Support Kansas City was asked to present by the Nonprofit Centers Network, who cohosted the conference. In their search for nonprofit organizations providing shared services, SKC rose to the top of the list. It’s been an exciting 15 years for SKC, and this is just one example of our growth and commitment to our mission of providing services to nonprofits and vision of a high performing, sustainable nonprofit community.

We’ve chosen to format and theme our newsletter around sharing. In addition to learning about the work we do as shared service providers, we know the Shared Resources, Shares Spaces and Shared Voices sections of our newsletter will provide valuable information and insight into the work of the nonprofit sector. We will be reaching out to and convening others in our community as we gather information and resources we hope you will find beneficial.
