Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about NSPR’s Community Building Blocks Program
How many nonprofits do you work with each year?
We typically select 3-4 nonprofits annually, providing each with a comprehensive 3–6-month PR campaign. This allows us to deliver meaningful, high-quality support rather than spreading our resources too thin.
Can we nominate ourselves?
Absolutely! We welcome self-nominations from nonprofit leaders who believe their organization would benefit from professional PR support. Just be sure to clearly articulate your mission, impact, and why you’re applying.
What types of nonprofits do you prioritize?
We support nonprofits across all sectors—education, healthcare, social services, environment, arts, and more. Priority is given to organizations doing impactful work with limited resources that can demonstrate clear communications goals.
How long is the engagement?
Most engagements run 3-6 months, depending on the nonprofit’s needs and campaign objectives. This timeline allows us to develop strategy, execute tactics, and deliver effective results.
Is there any cost to the nonprofit?
No. All services are provided completely free of charge. Selected nonprofits receive the same professional expertise and strategic approach as our paying clients, valued at thousands of dollars.
When are selections made?
We review nominations quarterly and notify selected organizations within 2-3 weeks of our selection meetings. Even if not selected immediately, your nomination remains active for future consideration.
