Okanagan College Needs Local Non-profit Organizations For Student Led Research
Throughout January the Scotiabank Centre for Non-Profit Excellence within Okanagan College’s School of Business is seeking participants from Central Okanagan non-profit organizations for a student-led research survey to identify gaps within the sector that are impacting growth opportunities.
“We know that social service non-profit organizations in our region have struggled with sustained business models and financial stability,” says Dr. Sheilagh Seaton, Okanagan College Business professor, and co-leader of the Scotiabank Centre for Non-Profit Excellence. “This survey will help us pin-point the causing factors, and to find adaptable solutions to increase the longevity of these organizations in our communities, shifting towards a more sustainable model of operation.”
