Nonprofit Grant Program Launch in NC Triangle Area – Mission Possible

 

Mission Possible NC Triangle Area Launches

Recently, Apparo CEO, Kim S. Lanphear was interviewed on My Carolina to discuss the launch of Mission Possible sponsored by Accenture in the NC Triangle Area. Mission Possible is a nonprofit grant program offered in Charlotte and the NC Triangle Area.

                                                         

After kicking off the launch, Sarag Gregory, Senior Program Associate for Apparo, held a training session for nonprofits interested in finding out more about this unique nonprofit grant opportunity. After the nonprofits registered to participate, they attended an Art of the Possible session. During this session, they had meetings with consultants to brainstorm and further develop their initiatives for bolstering economic mobility in the NC Triangle Area.

Below are the nonprofits, volunteers, and the Accenture consultants who are participating in this year’s Mission Possible NC Triangle Area grant. One lucky winner will receive $10,000 in cash and up to $50,000 in pro-bono consulting support.
