But who organizes the nonprofits? Who helps them mobilize their supporters, sharpen their leadership skills, and relay their vision to the public, to businesses and to local governments? Throughout Monterey and the Salinas Valley, that role falls to the Nonprofit Alliance of Monterey County (NAMC). This unincorporated membership organization represents a large range of key actors in the nonprofit industry. NAMC strives to develop and implement programs that encourage its members to work collaboratively and support one another, that improve the internal operations and structures of nonprofits, and that speak to the larger community about the critical role of the nonprofit industry in society. Governed by its Core Leadership, a 10- to 15-member group elected annually, NAMC ensures well-run and effective nonprofits that contribute to the overall economic wellbeing and quality of life in Monterey County. Formed in 2003 in response to financial and political upheavals that led to decreased funding and a loss of community services throughout the nonprofit sector, NAMC sought to uncover the needs of local nonprofits. In 2005, the Harden Foundation funded an economic impact survey that revealed the nonprofit sector to be a major employer in Monterey County. NAMC responded by holding brown bag lunches, socials and meetings, including the first in a series of Cultural Competency conferences. With its first paid staff member on board in 2007, NAMC provided educational workshops and legislative updates, networking nonprofit and public agencies and advocating in political circles on behalf of the nonprofit community. In just four years NAMC had become a trusted and skilled ally for the numerous and varied nonprofits. By tapping into the values, interests and relationships of nonprofits, NAMC can help mobilize and energize these groups to realize their visions and help the communities they serve.
