🔍 When was the last time you took a fresh look at your grant templates?

If it’s been ages (or even if you've tweaked them recently) there's always room for improvement!

Join us at PEAK Grantmaking for an interactive session: "Proposal and Report Exchange Lab," where we’ll dive into actual templates, rethink our requests, and create processes that open doors rather than shut them.

This is a must-attend event for funders who are ready to take action! Are you in? Let us know below! ⬇️

🌟 What do nonprofits really need to thrive, and are funders backing the right initiatives? 🌟

We teamed up with Nevada GrantLab to dig deep into this crucial question. By surveying 400 staff and board members from 79 organizations using the powerful Core Capacity Assessment Tool (CCAT®), we've uncovered a treasure trove of insights.

This collective analysis reveals shared strengths, common challenges, and a unique vision for a nonprofit ecosystem that no single organization could unveil on its own.

The outcome? A comprehensive roadmap for funders, capacity builders, and community partners aimed at making impactful investments that truly drive change.

In 2013, just 5% of Opera America grants went to works by women composers. Today? 50%.

We're proud to share how our partnership with the Virginia B. Toulmin Foundation is transforming gender equity in the performing arts. The results are extraordinary: a Pulitzer Prize winner, sold-out world premieres, and a field that looks fundamentally different than it did just a decade ago.

This is what strategic, values-driven philanthropy can accomplish. Read the full story here 👇

March is here, and so is PEAK Grantmaking's !

🔍 When did you last take a fresh look at your grant templates?
If your proposal and reporting forms haven't been revisited in a while (or even if they have) there's always room to reduce burden, sharpen language, and embed more trust.

We'll be bringing funders together to do the work in our session, "Proposal and Report Exchange Lab", workshopping real templates, rethinking what we ask and why, and designing processes that open doors instead of creating barriers.

This is the session for funders ready to walk the talk, so let us know if we'll see you there ⬇️

Most people picture foundations with large teams. In reality, most operate with no paid staff — leaving family members and advisors to manage everything from due diligence to impact tracking.

At TCC Group, we’ve seen how much that responsibility can stretch a small team.

Recently, we’ve supported foundations to:
✨ Reaffirm core values during board decisions
🌱 Explore emerging needs like local food security
🔄 Shift project grants to general operating support
🤝 Align legacy commitments with evolving priorities

A clear, values-grounded framework can make complex decisions more manageable. Learn more about how we support foundation grantmaking ➡️ https://ow.ly/Vbty50Yii8I

What do nonprofits actually need to thrive — and are funders investing in the right things?

TCC Group partnered with Nevada GrantLab to answer that question, surveying 400 staff and board members across 79 organizations using the Core Capacity Assessment Tool (CCAT®) — a validated tool used with more than 7,000 organizations nationally - for a cohort-level lens on what a nonprofit ecosystem looks like from the inside out. That collective picture reveals patterns no single organization could surface alone: shared strengths, common gaps, and a community's own vision for what's possible.

The result is a roadmap for funders, capacity builders, and community partners to invest in what actually moves the needle.
