Nonprofit Mergers are a Strategic First Choice—Not a Last Resort ✨ Girl Rising and She's the First proudly announced our merger on #DayoftheGirl -- a mission-driven move to reach millions more girls with education, leadership, and community support.  Today, the co-executive leaders of both organizations publish an op-ed on candiddotorg, exploring the value of nonprofit mergers to create stronger, more sustainable organizations, and why that matters for girls today and in the future. But there's a lot that stands in the way of nonprofits merging. We hope to contribute to a growing conversation among leaders and funders, on how to remove those roadblocks. We'd love to hear your thoughts!
