Testimonials:
I continue to recommend the program to colleagues. Micah 6 was on the cusp of major growth. Lessons learned, we needed. The program really prepared me for all the things I was needing to know in that period of growth. Absent the program the lessons would have come slowly. And then – the networking - a number of fellow students became partners, board members… NPMC Grad 2017 Coleman Yoakum, Executive Director, Micah 6 Community, Pontiac

Fundraising has always been a big and scary component of the work for me... This was a combination of discomfort with asking for and talking about money along with a lack of understanding of how fundraising works overall. After years of easing in, this [Entrepreneurship & Fund Development] class was perfectly timed, and I believe many gaps in my learning have now been filled. I feel much more comfortable and prepared to support these efforts in my work.
Current student, Krista Kirkpatrick, Director of Impact & Evaluation, Oakland Family Services

...this program lends credibility to me as a professional ... so much more than moving the needle on education. I had more on the ground experience than a lot of my fellow students, I found value in being able to lend value to their learning experience... It was also a good opportunity to be among other leaders… and expand my network... I loved learning about SMARTIE goals ... It was a game changer…every organization I’ve been involved with I have introduced to SMARTIE goals. It continues to inform my work. NPMC Grad 2020, Sommer Brock, former VP Development, Pontiac Community Foundation, now Executive Director, Accent Pontiac.
