Helping Funders Strengthen Nonprofit Ecosystems, Equitably

Through a combination of an online platform, 1:1 nonprofit coaching and peer-to-peer learning, funders are supporting their nonprofit partners in building mission-facing and back office capacity in a manner that best suits them. Resilia partners with a wide variety of funders including community foundations, United Ways, corporations, and more to build the capacity of the nonprofits on the ground serving historically marginalized communities.

About The Program

Equitable Access to Capacity-Building Resources

 

Funders sponsor the Resilia program for their grantees, nonprofit partners, and fiscally sponsored organizations to enable three entry points into comprehensive capacity-building resources. Nonprofit partners then get to decide what support they need, how and when, depending on their organizational needs, urgency, and preferred mode of support.

What Our Foundation Partners Are Saying

  • “Resilia has allowed us to meet a long-time goal of serving our grantee partners beyond the grant by offering skillful and accessible support with capacity building. When our grantees tell us they’re stuck on an organizational challenge, it feels good to connect them to Resilia’s team who can follow up with resources, problem-solving strategies, or simply an experienced coach to talk things through.”

  • “The San Francisco Foundation is committed to strengthening our partners' capacity to do their best work. After listening carefully to feedback on what is needed to build strong, vibrant organizations, we are excited to partner with Resilia, a Black woman-led social impact organization which provides nonprofits and change makers access to capacity-building support tailored to individual needs and priorities. Resilia's equity-centered and human-centered approach deeply resonates with SFF, and we are eager to learn from Resilia’s team and our partners.”

  • “We are very excited about this pilot project which gives our grantee partners the ability to utilize Resilia’s services at their own pace and grow their organizational capacity. Through this partnership, we are reinforcing our commitment to helping our grantee partners continue to grow and improve their internal operations to better serve their communities.”

  • “As we work towards building a more just and equitable future, Silicon Valley Community Foundation is looking at other ways beyond grantmaking where we can invest in BIPOC-led organizations so they can bolster their operations and organizational capacity. We’re thrilled to be working with Resilia, whose mission of strengthening and lifting up nonprofit organizations through long-term capacity building dovetails perfectly with our work. By providing our nonprofit partners access to Resilia’s technical assistance, coaching and capacity-building support, they will have the tools they need to help sustain their critical work in our communities.”
