Not-for-profit and member-based organisations work in our communities every day, providing much-needed services. Being so well integrated into our community experience provides these organisations with a deep understanding of the needs of the people and how they can meet them. However, within our small towns, it is often the same core group of people trying to make things happen. And before too long, volunteer exhaustion comes into play, and these organisations can struggle to survive.
At 150Square, we help build capacity within regional organisations, working to make local groups sustainable. We bring a genuine willingness to see ideas implemented, collaboratively and collectively from within, so these values become embedded at a grassroots level. We believe that strategy, structure and governance are the key elements of strong rural organisations.
Local Government organisations form the foundation of our country towns, developing and executing long-term strategies to grow our communities. Particularly in smaller areas, this is often done with few people and limited resources. Meaning even a small amount of the right external help can make a big difference.
The 150Square team’s involvement in our own communities gives us a genuine interest in and a solid understanding of the issues impacting regional governance in the Wheatbelt. We bring strong administration and project management skills as well as stakeholder engagement and relationship management to help you transform your town. This broad range of expertise means you get customised, responsive solutions that allow you to free up internal resources to work on other priorities.
Part of the 150Square mantra is to give back to the communities we live in. We have supported numerous not for profit organisations in rural WA, providing up to 10% of our time each year to undertake pro bono work. We will continue to do so where we can.
