About the Program
Application deadline: Friday, December 10, 2021 at 6:00 PM PT.
Nonprofits want to tell their stories and support their causes. To do this successfully, nonprofits must, among many other things, take care of their reputation. Health, social and economic impacts of the pandemic on nonprofits have made reputation management all the more essential in building familiarity, establishing trust and fortifying confidence within your nonprofit and within the communities you serve and from whom you receive support. Additionally, nonprofits are sometimes tasked with protecting their valuable reputations during a crisis or addressing a challenging issue or political climate affecting their cause.
ReputationUs (RepUs), a reputation management firm and Nonprofit Association of Oregon Verified Business Affiliate member works with nonprofits to help enhance, protect and defend their reputation through the annual RepUs Nonprofit Reputation Program. For tips, read more here.
In partnership with NAO, RepUs is offering one NAO Nonprofit member with six-months of pro bono reputation management support (a value of $14,000). The six-month collaboration includes:
- An assessment of the nonprofit’s current reputation internally (e.g., staff, volunteers, donors) and externally (e.g., public, political, media, social media)
- An actionable 2022 reputation management plan
- Reputation management support that includes content management, crisis management, media relations, social media, news releases and message unity training.
We welcome applications from all organizations, regardless of their type of work, so long as the organization is working towards the betterment of the community, society or planet. (Not sure if your organization is an NAO member? Check the list of current members here. To sign up or renew your membership, visit the NAO website.)
