SmartMatch
The Faster Way to Find Your Perfect Partner
We bridge the gap between nonprofits and our trusted, vetted members—and connect nonprofits with one another. Using an automated, secure system, we match you by size, location, and category to ensure every introduction is a best-fit for your mission.
Everything we do is 100% free for nonprofits.
Why SmartMatch?
Finding qualified support and peer insights shouldn't be a hurdle to your progress. SmartMatch is designed to:
Stop searching, start connecting.
Finding the right help shouldn't feel like a second job. SmartMatch eliminates the "search fatigue" of browsing endless directories or asking for recommendations in crowded forums. By using your specific data—size, location, and category—our automated system does the heavy lifting for you. We move you from "searching" to "meeting" in seconds, delivering a curated list of providers or peers who are already a practical fit for your organization’s current scale and needs.
You don’t have to lead in a vacuum.
The most valuable insights often come from those walking the same path. SmartMatch facilitates meaningful peer-to-peer connections, allowing nonprofit leaders to find "mission-mates" facing similar hurdles.
Whether you are looking to share resources, discuss regional challenges, or brainstorm joint grant opportunities, we bridge the gap between organizations. This isn't just networking; it’s a structured way to build a support system of fellow leaders who understand your specific mission and operational scale.
Matches built on more than just a keyword.
A "good" partner is only good if they are the right fit for your specific stage of growth. We ensure quality by aligning your unique needs with a partner’s actual expertise and capacity.
Our system filters for "right-sized" solutions, ensuring a small nonprofit isn't matched with a firm designed for global enterprises, and vice versa. By focusing on mission-alignment and functional expertise, we ensure that every introduction has the potential to become a high-impact partnership.
Building a trusted ecosystem, together.
We believe that a stronger community is built on consistent, trust-based interactions. By facilitating these automated introductions, we encourage a culture of long-term collaboration rather than one-off transactions.
Every match strengthens the ties across our entire ecosystem, creating a reliable, vetted network where nonprofits and members alike can grow, share, and succeed together.
Matching Criteria
The Right Partner is About the Right Fit
Whether you are looking for a service provider or a peer organization, our automated system filters for three primary criteria:
- Size: We align your organization’s scale with a partner’s experience or capacity.
- Location: We consider geography and regional context to ensure local relevance.
- Category: We match your functional needs or mission focus to the right expert or peer discipline.
