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
What we have in place
  • We currently have Our mission statement, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have theory of change document, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,397 , allowing us to better utilize our time to focus on our coalitions and serve more people affected by poverty.

We believe this project will help us better tailor our messaging to reach out and develop new relationships with people who are affected by poverty and those who serve them.

We feel that our organization, which has been in existence more than 120 years, should be the lead voice on anti-poverty efforts in Missouri. We know that having a good compelling message will allow for our team to bring in new anti-poverty advocates into our coalitions.
