Welcome to the MetroWest Nonprofit Network!
For 18 years, the MetroWest Nonprofit Network (MWNN) has strengthened nonprofit organizations by improving interagency communication, sharing ideas and information, and providing expertise on topics of mutual interest. We keep you connected to the resources needed to make small and medium-sized nonprofit organizations more effective, more efficient, and better able to meet their missions. The MetroWest Nonprofit Network (MWNN) is not a membership organization; the public is welcome to attend our events and use our services. Our programs and services include
- Workshops and trainings.
- Networking opportunities such as the monthly Lone Rangers Networking Breakfast
- MNN-NPO Connect Peer Mentoring Program. A great way to share expertise at no cost, on your own schedule.
- An Online Community of Metrowest Nonprofits View a community-wide nonprofit calendar, post your events, exchange ideas and advice, find resources, post jobs and volunteer opportunities, and more!
Our 2010 theme: “Facing the Future—Keys to Sustainability”
Our 2010 series of workshops kicked off with a focus on the grantwriting process. But financial support is just one aspect of sustainability. Leadership and other human resources, the public’s understanding of your mission, strategic planning, regenerating staff and volunteers, and community partnerships all factor into your sustainability. Through trainings, events, online resources, and such hands-on services as our new peer mentoring program, the MetroWest Nonprofit Network provides the critical expertise and knowledge to help sustain your organization’s capacity to fulfill its mission in the years ahead.
