A growing network of principle-based nonprofits driving social change.
Across the country, thousands of community organizations work to help people transform their lives — but they often lack the resources, knowledge, and support they need to grow. Catalyst provides an opportunity for top-performing nonprofits to influence the way society thinks about, talks about, and tackles poverty.
The Catalyst Community
Stand Together Foundation partners with more than 320 of America’s most effective nonprofits. With solutions as unique as the communities they serve, Catalysts are breaking the vicious cycle of poverty that traps far too many Americans.
The Catalyst Program is a selective six-month management and leadership development experience designed to unlock the potential of America’s highest-performing nonprofits. Each participant gains:
Local change, national impact
The Catalyst Community is led by nonprofit leaders and organizations with a proven track record of building stronger, safer communities by empowering people from the bottom up. We help fuel their innovation, expand their reach, and amplify their impact nationwide.
The Catalyst Impact Grant Program invites the most impactful Catalyst organizations to take their work to the next level. Each participant — known as a Catalyst Impact Partner — is offered three years of support to expand their efforts and demonstrate the effectiveness of the empowerment paradigm at scale:
- A $300,000 grant over 3 years
- Personalized Principle Based Management™ coaching and consulting
- Expanded partnerships and promotion from the Stand Together community
Money and supplies are necessary, but helping people escape poverty forever takes something more.
