Making Nonprofits Better: The Rap Foundation Works to Strengthen, Grow and Assist ...
Foundation: Regional Access Project Foundation
If you've always dreamed of running a nonprofit, now's your chance.
The University of California, Riverside's Palm Desert campus is teaming up with the Regional Access Project Foundation to offer a 35-week program in nonprofit management, the Desert Sun reports.
Students will learn about grant-writing, fundraising, and social media marketing, as well as a capstone course on nonprofit management, per a press release.
They'll also get a $500 scholarship to cover the cost.
"Our scholarships will ensure that potential nonprofit leaders will only have to pay $500 of the program's cost," says RAP Foundation CEO Leticia De Lara.
"The goal of the certificate program is to foster the next generation of nonprofit leaders," she adds.
