Professional organizers offer a nonprofit makeover
Professional organizers provide a valuable service to busy businesses that are service-oriented but have pushed their resources to the limit. Benefits include increased productivity, reduced stress and more control over time, space and activities.
Would your nonprofit benefit from working with a professional organizer? The Hawaii Association of Professional Organizers will celebrate January’s 2009 "National Get Organized Month" by giving an office makeover to a nonprofit. A team of organizers will come to your office, create a plan and spend one day working with you and your staff to create an office makeover.
HAPO wants to help your organization accomplish its goals in the community by being more organized. To apply, click here, print out the application form and send it in. The selected organization will receive:
- An assessment session with the team leader(s) to prepare organizing plan.
- A design plan of the office space, making equipment and office supplies easily accessible.
- Creation of a work environment that supports efficiency and productivity.
- A team of up to six professional organizers for one makeover session.
- Ideas and tips for staff to maintain good organization for the long term.
- Organizing products and services supplied by local and national vendors.
After reviewing the applications, HAPO may contact applicants with additional questions. If your organization is selected, HAPO will arrange for a site visit and interview prior to the event and, together with you, choose the date of the event. Completed applications must be received by Dec. 19.
