This isn’t a Donation – It’s an Investment in the Future
What’s at Stake if We Don’t Collaborate?
Employers
Can’t find qualified talent fast enough to fill evolving roles
→ Missed growth, higher turnover, lost revenue
Learners & Workers
Lack clear, affordable pathways to high-opportunity jobs
→ Wasted time, student debt, stalled upward mobility
Educators
Struggle to keep programs relevant and responsive
→ Under-enrollment, funding challenges, declining trust
When you invest in collaboration, you help communities build lasting pathways from learning to earning.
What Your Gift Powers
Traditional grant cycles move too slowly for today’s pace of change—what’s needed now is a faster, smarter way to align funding partners with change-makers and act while the opportunity is still in front of us.
Collaborative Convenings
Structured, tech-enabled sessions that align systems around regional goals.
Career-Connected Pathways
Education that leads to real opportunities — not just credentials.
Institutional Innovation
Tools to help colleges and training providers stay responsive and relevant.
Together, we can unify efforts and create a thriving ecosystem that works for all.
Invest in the Glue, Not Just the Parts
The workforce system isn’t failing for lack of effort — it’s failing for lack of connection. Every year, billions in grant funding support well-intentioned programs that:
Target narrow issues
Operate in isolation
End before real momentum takes root
Traditional grant cycles move too slowly for today’s pace of change. What’s missing isn’t effort — it’s the process that connects it.
Why It Matters to Funders:
Your gift isn’t just a grant. It’s an investment in a community’s capacity to lead its own future. By funding Collaboration-as-a-Service™ (CaaS), you help coalitions align faster, act smarter, and sustain momentum long after a single project ends.
For Foundations
Fund the process that connects and amplifies the programs you already support.
For Corporate Partners
You’re not just hiring talent, you have a vested interest in shaping what that talent becomes. Integrate your hiring needs into regional planning to shorten time-to-hire and reduce turnover.
For Family Foundations
Your mission is personal and generational. Support structured collaboration that helps your community lead its own future.
For Individual Donors
You care about outcomes—not waste, duplication, or performative progress. Lift opportunities for families and workers
Collaboration That Lasts
Every system is made up of people, roles, and relationships.
Ask yourself: “Who might we collaborate with to better prepare for what’s coming?”
By investing in transformative collaboration, you help communities build lasting pathways from learning to earning.
