Under the Community Resources Division at the Fort Bend Chamber of Commerce, the Excellence for Nonprofit Leadership (ENL) program has been wildly successful for 22 years. The Fort Bend Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with The George Foundation, designed this program to strengthen nonprofit organizations and better equip them to serve the community. The program enhances the knowledge and skill sets of senior staff, board members and engaged community members leading nonprofit organizations. ENL provides the necessary knowledge to boost your organization’s capacity and performance while building a peer network of professionals working toward a common goal of serving Fort Bend County. Registration is now open for the 2024-2025 class whose 55 coveted spots traditionally fill quickly.
ENL is an eight-month program, September through April, beginning with an overnight, opening retreat in The Woodlands, TX followed by seven, one-day sessions covering Board Governance, Organizational Assessment, Strategic Planning, Human Capital – Staff & Volunteers, Fund-development, Nonprofit Finance and more. The Excellence for Nonprofit Leadership program concludes with a Capstone and Graduation ceremony.
