Why Somos El Poder is different? and How can you benefit? It’s no secret that with more financial resources an organization can offer more programs and services. We are very realistic about barriers to changing fundraising culture at all types of organizations. We believe that even small improvements in fundraising will encourage nonprofit leaders to expand their investment in building fundraising at their institution. For this reason, we make SEP Classes and Professional Development easily accessible. We work to involve a minimum of two people from each organization. We do this because the weakness of most professional development in fundraising is that it lacks the buy-in from senior leadership who haven't heard new ideas or methods expressed in professional development classes and conferences. ​Many Latinx-focused nonprofits have not expanded fundraising due to a perceived or real lack of resources.

​Come and learn more about what we offer at Somos El Poder and how you can help your organization reach its fundraising potential with your membership!
