The story of Speak Life Agency is one filled with opportunity, obstacles, and triumphs. After working in nonprofit leadership for over 15 years, it has become clear that the laborious administrative tasks of managing a nonprofit often take away from the passion and focus on solving the problems that plague our society. Fundraising, strategic planning, and effective storytelling consume valuable time and energy that could be better spent serving communities. This is where Speak Life Agency comes in.
We understand the challenges faced by nonprofit workers who are bravely tackling society's most pressing issues. Our mission is to support these individuals and organizations by alleviating the stress associated with fundraising, strategic planning, board development, and storytelling.
Having served as a vice principal of a K-8 charter school and worked for renowned nonprofits such as the YMCA, Goodwill, and United Way, as well as served as the executive director for Playworks Wisconsin, I empathize with your frustrations. Budget constraints often mean that essential tasks are handled by just a few people or volunteers. However, these tasks are crucial for business growth, visibility, and proper governance.
The need for mission-driven work focused on delivering results has never been more urgent than now. The pandemic has exacerbated community needs while highlighting the importance of well-run organizations with adequate funding. Let Speak Life Agency assist you in making a difference in your community.
