Nonprofit organizations using KNN's Principles & Practices for Nonprofit Excellence in Kentucky resources are encouraged to participate in the Kentucky Nonprofit Best Practices Partnership. The Partnership is a communications tool to help organizations better share their commitment to utilizing the Principles & Practices for Nonprofit Excellence in Kentucky Guide & Workbook as general guidelines for strengthening the accountability, transparency and overall management excellence of their organization.
If your organization is using the Principles & Practices resources (or plans to); is a current KNN member (or would like to join); and is committed to promoting and implementing appropriate nonprofit management recommended practices that encourage efficient, effective and ethical operations, you should participate as a Nonprofit Best Practices Partner!
What's in it for your nonprofit? Best Practices Partners will:
- receive a partnership seal that you are welcome to use on your website and a decal to post in your office;
- be included in an online directory of participating nonprofits - your logo and a hotlink to your website will be featured; and
- receive special recognition from KNN at events and in social media.
