In recent years, Better Futures has played a pivotal role in developing the ecosystem for early childhood education leaders to thrive in leadership roles. In an effort to continue our momentum and impact, Better Futures has created more value for nonprofit leaders through CRAFT Executive, which was crafted to support nonprofit leaders within the early childhood education sector. Why? Simply because nonprofit leaders do not usually serve their Association members alone, but they frequently feel alone. When you combine the fact that existing board members are often unskilled in infrastructure, board recruitment, fundraising, and grant writing, it's no wonder that once thriving Association leaders feel alone, focus on incorrect priorities and, no longer add value in communities that desperately needs their support and resources. 

All nonprofits want one thing, more Unrestricted grants and less Restricted grants. CRAFT Executive not only offers live webinars and engaging content, every enrolled nonprofit team will be invited to join our Community of Practice, which will meet quarterly to talk and support each other as leaders to win more grants. In addition, and new for 2024, CRAFT Executive nonprofit members will receive an initial assessment for Grant Readiness upon enrollment. After assessing your Grant Readiness, we will identify up to 10 grants that fit your needs and eligibility requirements, and provide a dedicated Grant Writer to support your team throughout the course with at least least one unrestricted grant application.

​

As a bonus, each nonprofit that enrolls receives a free-trial of CRAFT Premier until December 31st.  To boost member engagement and board involvement, CRAFT Premier provides your entire member base complimentary access to our live CRAFT webinars, CRAFT Cafe Live, and more at no cost.

​

Finally, CRAFT Executive now offers an entire ecosystem with tools and technology to better manage a nonprofit’s day-to-day challenges with a built-in payment processing system, marketing automation, Built-in AI tools and our modern CRM system. Upon enrollment, each nonprofit receives a complimentary free trial of CANOE, our modern and practical CRM system to test drive for up to 14 days. Join Now
