Elevator Pitch Coaching

Project details

What we need
  • Document outlining feedback on pitch delivery with suggested next steps and/or resources
  • A script for a 1-minute verbal pitch that communicates your Organization's mission, work, and why people should care
Additional details

Today marks my first full week as the Partnership and Resource Director for St. Patrick Senior Center. I'm looking for assistance with a 60 second organization pitch.

What we have in place
  • St. Patrick Senior Center is Detroit's largest health and wellness center for adults over 55. We serve lunch six days a week, often to a couple hundred people. We also provide dozens of health-related initiatives, an on-site clinic, transportation, caregiver education, in-home services; assistance with benefits applications, dance and exercise classes, and activities ranging from a gospel choir to a book club and more.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,397 , allowing us to use the funds for programs.

Elevator pitches are very important. It provides a brief, yet detailed description of what the organization is all about. An elevator pitch is a quick way to grab the attention of a potential foundation/donor leaving them wanting to know more about the organization. We are in need of the help of a professional.
