Founded in 2007, Endeavour has since recruited and managed over 200 volunteers to provide free consulting to 36 non-profits in Ontario. Endeavour is run entirely by volunteers, and primarily funded by monies raised at our annual networking fundraiser and donations from the volunteer Board of Directors. We would like you to join us at the fundraiser, to share your experiences and insights in the non-profit consulting sector; and at the same time support us in providing free consulting to non-profit organizations that cannot afford professional consulting.
