About

Candid, through the support of the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation is hosting a national kick-off event for the Nonprofit StartUp Assessment Tool (NPSAT). The launch will feature our new course, Is Starting a Nonprofit Right for You? with a full demonstration of the NPSAT and an Open House featuring our Funding Information Partner, Kansas City Public Library - Central Location.

Starting a nonprofit is both a rewarding and challenging process. But we’re excited to share that it's about to get a lot easier, thanks to a new tool from Candid! The NPSAT will provide changemakers looking to start a nonprofit with the resources and insights they need to be successful nonprofit founders.
