Who we are

Nonprofit professionals with a passion for mission and value-driven growth, and a commitment to supporting smaller NGOs

Sustainable

Growth

 We spent 2024 conversing with friends and colleagues about “what next?”. We wanted to learn, collaborate, and create. A thread we kept coming back to was the desire to to work with the small, community and grassroots nonprofits.
 

There we find founders and teams stretching scarce resources to support their communities, empower people and change lives for the better.

We believe that these organisations deserve access to the same quality of support, guidance, and resources as others and in ways that work for their size, realities, and context.

And, New Venture Partners was born!
