Now it's your turn to join the movement and Make It Matter ?.

Pro Bono Financial Consultants Needed
A Taproot Financial Consultant works with the nonprofit client to uncover crucial data about operational costs and answers pressing questions like "Should we open a new site?", "Which of our services best balances mission and expense?", or "What is our minimum efficient scale?". The Consultant provides insight into actual costs, and uncovers opportunities for growth or increased efficiency.

A successful pro bono Financial Consultant:

A Service Grant project requires a 3-5 hour commitment each week over the course of approximately 6 months. This opportunity is flexible enough to work around the schedule of a full-time job.
