As a public benefit nonprofit organization, we always look for better ways to fulfill our mission. Both our staff and board are committed to this process. To achieving measurable results and approving priorities for implementation.
We revisit our strategies on an ongoing basis. It’s a top priority as the organization's internal and external environments change.

Looking at things like our ability to reach our goals and deliver on our promises is of vital importance.

Practice Pointers
Potter’s Gate Charities’ board regularly reviews the nonprofit's strategic initiatives. Every board meeting includes a discussion about some part of our strategic direction.

This way, the plan stays on point, focused in response to ever-changing circumstances.
We're Committed to Achieving Measurable Results and Approving Priorities for Implementation.
