Member Discussion: Sustainable Business Models for Civic and Communal Renewal

Are you committed to our generational project of civic and communal renewal? Are you trying to figure out sustainable approaches to resourcing this work? In this interactive workshop, we’ll be exploring how we might be able to build for sustainability within our civic and communal work.

Models we'll explore include:

  1. Informal & volunteer-based side projects

  2. Consulting and project-based approaches

  3. Philanthropic & grant-oriented fundraising

  4. Membership models & direct sales

    ... and other creative models

Each comes with their fair share of tradeoffs. We’ll open with a brief presentation of these different approaches and then facilitate an open discussion and workshop, so we can help each other identify and make the best use of the approaches that match what we’re looking to achieve.
