YOUR MISSION, ACCELERATED.
Third Sector Innovations gives Western Colorado nonprofit leaders the systems, support,
and hands-on guidance they need to accomplish their mission.
YOUR NONPROFIT MISSION DESERVES A QUALIFIED TEAM
Running a nonprofit in Western Colorado means doing more with less. You’re managing volunteer board dynamics, chasing grant deadlines in a rapidly shifting funding landscape, and keeping your organization moving forward, all at once.
You do it because you believe in your mission.
We believe in your mission, too.
Third Sector Innovations has been working alongside Western Slope nonprofits in Colorado for over 30 years. We know the funding landscape, the grant-makers, the community needs, and the specific pressures you’re facing every day. When you work with us, we figure out exactly what your organization needs — from ad hoc grant writing to long-term funding development and beyond — then we build a plan that works with the resources you have.

OUR PROCESS
STEP 1:
CONNECT
Tell us where you are, and we’ll meet you there. Fill out our contact form with your name, organization, and the best way to reach you. We’ll get back with you to set up a conversation.
STEP 2:
ASSESS
If you aren’t sure what you need from us, don’t worry. We help you identify what
your organization needs, what’s
stopping progress, and the best way
to move forward.
STEP 3:
IMPLEMENT & DELIVER
We get to work. From grant management to board training, every engagement ends with clarity: tasks assigned, responsibilities noted, and next steps on the calendar.
“I have worked with Third Sector Innovations for more than 20 years. From board and organizational capacity building, to strategic planning, to crisis management and fundraising, in every moment, the Third Sector team has been wonderful. […] They challenge you to see your blind spots, to think and behave differently, to commit to being better.”
