HOW DOES ESC USE YOUR DONATION?
Many Triangle nonprofits cannot afford professional consulting They find even ESC’s low administrative fees beyond their reach. Your donations are used primarily to provide scholarship funds to subsidize ESC fees. Of our 170 engagements in 2009 and 2010 to date, 49% received scholarship funds. The average scholarship was $587. The average cost of an engagement was $1000. Scholarship funding is critical to supporting our important work with nonprofits. Our administrative costs are extremely low. Our highly efficient staff use donated office space and our consultants work from their homes and supply their own resources. Scholarships allow nonprofits to receive the highest quality assistance at the most affordable price.
