Foraker partnerships are opportunities for larger nonprofits, small businesses, corporations, foundations and government entities to share the vision of the Foraker Group to promote a healthy and thriving nonprofit sector in Alaska. Annual partnership and co-branding opportunities ensure that contributors will receive recognition in the community for their commitment to the sector and also for their commitment to their employees who are working and volunteering in the sector.
Why Now?
Foraker has a statewide presence. Foraker has established itself as a vital partner to the Alaska nonprofit sector. Foraker has established credibility as a valuable source of information on board and volunteer service for employees in the business community. Foraker has the ability to attract nationally recognized speakers/trainers on leadership, sustainability, finance, marketing, governance and philanthropy. Foraker has the capacity to recognize sponsors for their generosity and commitment to the nonprofit sector. Contributions to the Foraker Group can be leveraged to support the entire nonprofit sector

| Co-Branding: Foraker Certificate Program ( $50,000 ) |
| The Foraker Certificate in Nonprofit Management is a program offered in partnership with the University of Alaska Fairbanks. It is designed for Alaska nonprofit professionals who want to enhance their management skills. This is a non-degree program offering Continuing Education Units (CEU's) and requires 13 days of classroom attendance. The certificate is offered in a cohort model designed to foster a unique learning environment that builds lasting relationships among participants. Foraker will launch the sixth cohort in 2005, in Anchorage. Nonprofit professionals from Kodiak, Homer, Seward, Kenai, Mat-Su Valley, Nome, and Bethel, have attended either the Anchorage or Fairbanks programs. Students have come from all sectors of the nonprofit community including: education, environment, health and social services, arts, public radio, housing, chambers of commerce, associations, advocacy and corporate and foundation philanthropy.

| Co-Branding: Leadership Series ( $60.000 ) |
|
Since 1996, ConocoPhillips Alaska (then ARCO) has worked closely with the United Way of Anchorage (now United Way and Foraker) to offer skill-building workshops for nonprofit professionals. These workshops have attracted a wide variety of trainers who are experts in their fields - bringing participants the latest in trends and showing effective ways to use "best practices" in nonprofit management. The demand is high for nationally recognized speakers on issues critical to nonprofits. Many of the thousands of attendees over the years work for small nonprofits who do not have the financial recourses to travel Outside for this level of training. The dynamic speakers and timely topics add between 60 and 200 participants in each training session as well as a wealth of media communication opportunities for our sponsor.

| Co-Branding: Rural Technical Assistance Fund ( $100,000 ) |
| The Rural Technical Assistance program has the core purpose to strengthen rural community organizations and does so utilizing the core values of self-sufficiency, community driven, sustainability and strategic thinking. The project goals are to develop healthy self-sustaining projects, and increase equity of funding allocation between rural and urban organizations. Strategies to reach these goals include: focus on specific project planning and development; sharing responsibility and maintaining effort; learning needed skills or finding the right person to help; viewing planning as an ongoing process rather than something done at the last minute to get a grant; and networking with those outside the community who can help. |
