Reduced Printing & Graphic Design Costs
We get you the best price possible on your marketing and fundraising printing needs—usually 40% below retail—by using our longstanding relationships with local printing and graphic design professionals.

More Revenue Prospects We are constantly on the lookout for funding opportunities for your organization. That means that as a LAPA client, you have more exposure to hidden or unknown prospective grant sources. Many of our clients receive “anonymous” grants and gifts due to LAPA’s network of funders and individual donors.

Opportunities for Collaborations and Partnerships  When appropriate, we introduce clients to each other to help foster collaborations and partnerships. We have brokered several mergers and acquisitions.

Networking in Your Field of Service  We will help you connect with others in your field so that you may share ideas and resources, and build your professional Rolodex.

Meeting and Conference Space  LAPA is often able to offer meeting/conference space for your organization’s use.

Professional Associations Through LAPA’s membership in many regional and national professional associations, you receive the most current literature and information on management and fundraising. These include but are not limited to the National Alliance for Nonprofit Management and the Association of Fundraising Professionals.
