The NonProfit Training Institute When some people think about nonprofit organizations, they think of art museums and symphonies. Some think of large national or international public charities that have become recognized institutions. Others think of small community groups offering job training programs or soup kitchens feeding the homeless. At the NonProfit Training Institute (NPTI), we think of all of these. We also think of the Underground Railroad and the Civil Rights Movement. And we think of churches, schools and people--organizing to assist the elderly, the young and the handicapped. Then we think of people walking out into their communities and, along with seeing needs, they see a vision of how they might work to address those needs. Then they help others to see the vision and become inspired to join them in the work. From joblessness to hopelessness, from economic development to social outreach, and from health care to elderly care, the Nonprofit Training Institute serves the needs of committed visionaries who dream of making a positive impact on the problems in their communities. NPTI works to make dreams become a reality. The visionaries start with a vision and a commitment to give birth to a missionary endeavor. We hold their hands and help them deliver. The Mission of the NonProfit Training Institute is to promote excellence in the establishment and continued survival of viable community organizations. NPTI accomplishes this by providing technical assistance and training for emerging, new and established nonprofits and by advocating the adoption of professional ethics and standards for community organizations. In addition, NPTI encourages volunteerism and sponsorship for the most worthy community endeavors. The NonProfit Training Institute is a membership association based in Atlanta, Georgia.
