Project details

What we need
  • Clear and effective copy for an annual report that illustrates the Organization’s successes and plans for growth (e.g., descriptions of programs, allocation of funds, and recognition of donors and volunteers)
  • Blueprint of the structure for the annual report, including optimal content, length, and style
What we have in place
  • We currently have a theme and brand messaging, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have data points and language, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $9,148 , allowing us to save over 20 hours of work and focus more time and resources on supporting our nonprofit members and working towards a strong nonprofit sector that benefits all New Yorkers!

NPCC’s Annual Report is a way to acknowledge our supporters, report on the outcomes of our programs, and recognize important NPCC successes. We debut the report at our Annual Meeting of Members in the spring but also use it as a marketing tool throughout the year. In the past, our Annual Report has been jammed pack with information but lacked a cohesive story and often took up staff time and resources when it came time to copy edit. We seek a professional whose skills will change this and help tell NPCC’s story in a new and an exciting way.

Testimonials

Nora is amazing to work with! As a state association that works with 1700 nonprofits in the New York City area, it is often difficult to hone in on what we consider our "most important" work. Nora was able to shine a light on what we do and create a cohesive and truly unique voice for NPCC. She has a clear understanding of how a nonprofits work and is able to bring her expertise to the work. She is an excellent copy-editor and is patient, to boot! I wouldn't hesitate to work with her again!

Annual Report Writing Project

I had a wonderful time working with Nonprofit Coordinating Committee of New York. The development of their 2017 annual report was a big project and it was a pleasure to be a part of it. Taina is outstanding and the rest of the leadership of NPCC are highly engaged! It was an outstanding opportunity.
