Organization

Seeds of Hope Foundation (SHF) is a unique, community-based charity that strives to open new doors for people who are at a crossroads in their lives, by supporting each individual’s gifts and talents while encouraging them to discover a passion for helping others. SHF’s model of shared learning, fellowship and action enhances livelihood, educational, and employment opportunities for individuals who face systemic barriers of homelessness, mental health challenges and addictions. Rather than relying on institutional methods, SHF’s model taps into the “genius of local communities” and focuses on guiding people who feel excluded or isolated back into the realm of community.

Project

Although SHF is a well-established and successful charity, it requires assistance managing the growth of the organization and supporting its growing but ever changing volunteer base. Endeavour has been engaged to recommend an operational model and implementation roadmap to SHF that satisfies its desire to introduce sustainable operating processes and structure to support future growth and maintain the entrepreneurial spirit of the organization.
