Access the expertise you need to be most effective

Technical Assistance (TA) grants help nonprofits access specialized skills and services to operate effectively and sustainably. TA grant funding can support a range of organizational needs, such as board development and financial management; fundraising and communications; and retreat facilitation and strategic planning; among others. 

Grantees can identify their own consultants they would like to hire, or they can select from Mat-Su Health Foundation’s network of consultants. Grantees can use awarded funding to contract with consultants at an agreed-upon rate.
