Nonprofits and Churches.
Nonprofits are the “boots on the ground” in communities. Our tools and support allow nonprofits to become more EFFECTIVE.
The currency of the nonprofit and philanthropic world is “IMPACT”. What’s often lost in the overuse of this term is that even if something is “impactful” that doesn’t mean that it’s effective.
Pivot Partnerships works with nonprofit partners to become more EFFECTIVE.
Imagine if through your organization’s work, poverty ended. Food insecurity became an issue of the past. Sensitive environmental lands were preserved and appropriately valued. You get the idea.
Our tools and strategic guidance gets you there.

ASSESSMENT & EVALUATION
Pivot’s Assessment & Evaluation approach is two-fold.
Assessment. We examine the specific need you are trying to solve, the population you hope to serve, and the desired outcome you want to achieve. During our review we understand determine missed opportunities for efficiency that will improve service delivery and move you toward achieving your organization’s goals.
Evaluation. Typical evaluation methods examine your organization’s work independently but Pivot employs a proprietary data tool that examines the influence of your intervention or service within the overall breadth of collective organizations providing services to that community or household. Our evaluation strategy helps organizations shift to a mindset that we need each other to reach larger goals.
CLIENT DATA MANAGEMENT
Pivot’s client data management tools, through a collaboration with CharityTracker, connect data and resources to achieve desired outcomes. The number of nonprofits who continue to serve the same individuals year after year is staggering and there is no understanding of the cross-functional relationship of services provided because of the inefficiencies in their data tools.
Pivot’s client data management tools connect your work to other Pivot Partners, providing you with a network for referrals and data insights that serve as a blueprint for the collective activity and where services and resources are needed. Our system maintains privacy and upholds the most stringent security standards.
DATA INSIGHTS FOR SERVICE DELIVERY (Data Subscriptions)
The toughest challenge most nonprofits face is identifying where their services are needed and quantifying the magnitude of the problem. Societal challenges from housing to preservation of natural environments to jobs and education are complex and occur because of numerous factors interacting with each other.
STA-CIS is a proprietary data tool from Pivot that analyzes the interdependence of policy, household characteristics, the relationship between physical assets, and structural and systemic barriers. From this analysis, STA-CIS provides visualizations and reports to guide interventions, service delivery, and project design.
The result is more effective decision-making and service delivery. STA-CIS provides nonprofits with the guidance needed to become effective, solving challenges that yield visible and sustainable quality of life improvements.
DIRECT FUNDING
(Coming late June 2025)
Without funding, nonprofits are unable to achieve their mission. Each year over $50 billion is contributed directly to nonprofits or placed in mechanisms to designate funding at a future date.
Pivot’s direct funding model allows nonprofits who have gone through our Nonprofit Capacity Building program and are Pivot Certified to automatically receive funds without ever writing a grant application.
How do we do it?
We expose donors to effective organizations measured through our data tools. We know what our partners do, we understand their process, and have witnessed their effectiveness. The least we can do is take the stress out of funding their work.
