The Forum of Executive Women Seeks a Local Nonprofit for Its New Program the Forum Alliance

The Forum of Executive Women July 18, 2014 Category: PurposeUncategorized

The-Forum-of-Executive-WomenThe Forum of Executive Women has launched a new pilot program, The Forum Alliance, for its 2014-15 fiscal year. The program will select one nonprofit from the region that it will strategically align with over the course of the year.

The Forum is a membership organization of more than 400 women of significant influence across the Greater Philadelphia region whose mission is to leverage the power of executive women in the region to expand the impact and influence of women leaders.

The Forum will align with the chosen nonprofit partner over the course of the year and will provide a source of talent and support. In addition, the Forum will provide networking and access to leaders with expertise to help the organization. While The Forum will not make a monetary contribution to the “Forum Ally,” it will work to build a mutually beneficial, year-long relationship with them.

The Forum is excited to launch this new strategic alliance which will enable us to shine a spotlight on one deserving non-profit in the Philadelphia region and lend the Forum’s rich source of talent to promote and further strengthen the selected entity,” said Suzanne Mayes, Esq., chair of public and project finance at Cozen O’Connor, in an email. Mayes is the vice president and chair of the Strategic Alliance Committee for The Forum of Executive Women.

Our commitment to this initiative echoes the mission of the Forum which has always focused on the importance of our members’ active engagement in the community in addition to advancing women’s leadership roles in business,” she added.

The criteria to apply as a nonprofit are:

  • Must be an active non-profit and Section 501(c)(3) organization in existence for at least seven years.
  • Must have paid executive director (or equivalent) who does not currently serve as a member of The Forum’s Board of Directors.
  • Preference for an organization that employs no more than 50 full-time equivalents.
  • Must possess a mission that is aligned with or complementary to that of The Forum.
  • Must be headquartered in the Greater Philadelphia region.
  • Must have had positive cash flow (EBITDA = Revenue – Expenses (excluding interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization)) and positive net assets in the most recently completed fiscal year and in three of the prior five fiscal years.
