As
an organization....
What Are The Benefits Of Membership
In Community Works?
Here is what
our members say…
- Community
Works provides additional cost-effective promotional and marketing
opportunities for my organization and enables us to access more
employees and work sites than I could on my own;
- Community
Works offers the community and employees a more progressive
alternative to the United Way;
- Community
Works creates opportunities for my agency to collaborate with
other organizations with similar goals;
- Community
Works provides a supportive forum and environment for me to
discuss and get help dealing with internal organizational issues
like: hiring, and firing and other management issues;
- Community
Works provides some additional unrestricted funding for my organization;
- Community
Works provides a cooperative vehicle to respond to issues raised
in the nonprofit community (eg. the recent negative United Way
ad campaign of 1999);
- Community
Works is a resource that provides me information about other
community resources and fundraising options; for example, which
local banks have the best record for community reinvestment;
- Community
Works meetings are a good opportunity for me to network with
other groups, especially those with a statewide agenda or constituency;
something I cannot get anywhere else.
For
all these reasons and more, your best cooperative fundraising
and development move this year
is to join us!
