Overview
At Great Place we know that community-based organisations are filled with people who are committed to their cause and passionate about building strong communities. We also know that more and more community organisations are doing it tough. Competition for attention and funding is fierce in an environment in which not-for-profits are increasingly expected to fill ever widening gaps not addressed by government. A real challenge for community organisations lies in figuring out how to ensure your cause is heard amongst all of the other worthy causes out there. Great Place will assist you in pursuing a smartly tuned strategy specific to ensuring that your message is heard and that you survive and thrive in your local community and beyond.
