Tango is a new venture and it doesn't cost anything to join if you're a non-profit.

TANGO stands for The Alliance for Nonprofit Growth and Opportunity and it's a collaboration - a group of businesses that provide professional services who have banded together to offer their expertise at a discount to non-profits.

TANGO describes its partners as not only the best in their businesses, but also experienced in and committed to the nonprofit sector. The partners offer services that range from:

• Employee Benefits;
• Marketing;
• Organizational Development;
• Business Services;
• Development & Fundraising;
• Insurance;
  
• and even things like Architecture and Video Production.

TANGO holds free monthly webinars and programs to help us stay informed and keep current in everything from marketing and branding to HR and employee benefits.

In this time of budget crunching and outsourcing, TANGO is something to learn about, and since it doesn't cost anything to join, why not? You can find them at www.tangoalliance.com and register online. When you join you'll get notices of the webinars and the list of partner organizations.
