About Us
 The mission of the Nonprofit Management Fund is to improve the management effectiveness and efficiency of nonprofit organizations and to increase the resources for nonprofit management in the greater Milwaukee area. The expectations are that grantees will become more effective and efficient in serving clients, program participants, their audience, or the community-at-large.
Since 1994, the Nonprofit Management Fund has operated as a collaboration of private funders in the metropolitan Milwaukee area. Collectively, the funders in Milwaukee have contributed over $7.5 million for grants to nonprofit organizations and to implement related initiatives.
Management Cornerstones Inc, a firm with 26 years experience in consulting, training and program development with nonprofit organizations, serves as the Fund Advisor. The President of the firm manages both the implementation and evaluation of the grantmaking program as well as oversees the initiatives of the Fund.
Sample funding areas: board development, staff training, strategic/annual planning, mergers, marketing, corporate restructuring, organizational assessment, financial management, human resources, technology, earned income strategies, and fundraising.
