“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” African proverb
Nonprofit organizations are experienced at working together collaboratively. Partnerships between organizations can have substantial benefits such as amplified community impact, increased service ability, enhanced visibility and accessibility, and operational efficiency.
The term “strategic alliances” is a catch-all that can run the gamut from collaborations to more formal alliances like administrative consolidation, joint programming, or corporate integrations like mergers.
