Strengthening Cause-Driven Organizations
Every nonprofit needs money. Unfortunately, that is where many organizations want to start – with fundraising. Jumping right into raising money is like building a house without a foundation. It might work for a while, but it’s not going to last.
Athena Coaching & Consulting helps nonprofits to develop a solid foundation by curating a Board of Directors that is right for them. Through evaluating, educating, and empowering the board, we will help take your organization where you want (and the community needs) it to go. Not only that, developing your Board of Superheroes enables leaders to gain more time to focus on the important work of saving the world!
The Athena mission is to make the world a better place
by strengthening cause-driven organizations
through development of dynamic Boards of Directors.

Nonprofit organizations exist to solve critical social issues in our communities. That is important and challenging work! Leaders cannot, and should not, tackle it alone. Developing a strong and healthy Board of Directors that is right for YOUR organization is key to success.
Athena Coaching & Consulting helps nonprofit leaders to curate Boards of Directors that will drive impact, establish financial stability, and ensure long-term organizational sustainability. One of the most significant values that nonprofits provide is engaging more people in caring about the issues facing our communities. Athena can help make sure you do it right!
By creating a Board of SUPERHEROES, organizations increase their mission impact, engage more people in helping with their cause, and make sure that the organization will be able to do their great work long after the founder has stepped away.
