The Capacity Building program from the Keith Campbell Foundation for the Environment provides targeted operational support to nonprofit organizations, helping them strengthen their internal capacity and effectiveness. This initiative recognizes that nonprofits often face challenges in funding operational needs—such as technology upgrades, professional development, and diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice (DEIJ) work—which are critical for organizational sustainability but frequently overlooked by other funders. The program offers grants to current or recent grantees to address these needs, including support for tax and audit preparation, office improvements, and access to compensation benchmarking resources. Through these grants, the Foundation aims to empower nonprofits to operate more efficiently, foster equitable workplaces, and better serve their communities.
