New Blog Series: How to Start a Nonprofit Side Hustle

This is the first post in the How to Start a Nonprofit Side Hustle series.

I wasn’t planning on doing a “how to become a nonprofit consultant” series until next month, but then yesterday’s post about innovating your nonprofit career sparked this comment from Dee:

Speaking of side hustles, Rosetta, sometime in the future can you do a post about non-profit consulting? (How you got into it, what you do, the time commitment, etcetera). Or, if you think there’s already an existing resource about it, feel free to point me in the right direction. Thank you!

So I figured I might as well start today! But first, you ask, what is a nonprofit side hustle? Let me explain what I mean with that term. A side hustle is a job that you do on the side in addition to your full-time job. Therefore a nonprofit side hustle is when you provide services or consulting to nonprofits on the side.

Stay tuned during the next week or so for posts about my journey into nonprofit consulting, how to get your name out there, some technical aspects of doing the work, and real-life stories from other nonprofit consultants. In the meantime, please post any resources you know of in the comments!

    Looking forward to your perspective on consulting! During the last several months, I have provided some consultancy to small, faith-based start-ups. I am looking forward to your suggestions on how to improve my side hustle! Thanks, Jessica

    Look forward to hearing more about this, especially how you propose one manages the overwhelming needs of many nonprofits (as a result of stretched dollars and capacity) along with a full-time position.
