More capacity for nonprofits.
Small nonprofit teams often lack the time, funding, or expertise to improve the systems behind their work. Your gift helps them access practical project support.
Strengthen nonprofits.
Prepare the future workforce.
Your gift helps nonprofits move forward while students gain experience they can show an employer.
One gift. Two kinds of impact.
Real experience for students.
Students work directly with nonprofit leaders and industry advisors, building skills, confidence, and concrete examples of what they can do.
Why this support matters
81% of nonprofits surveyed reported challenges raising funds to cover their full costs. Nonprofit Finance Fund, 2025 survey
Employers surveyed were more than three times as likely to prioritize a candidate with work experience over one distinguished mainly by grades and academic awards. Strada Education Foundation, October 2026

Estimated student contributions
Illustrative estimate; actual project value varies. Gifts of every size are welcome.
How we estimate this value
This is Accelerated Visions’ conservative planning estimate, not a precisely measured outcome. Our typical semester planning baseline is 525–550 team hours; at Independent Sector’s 2025 Virginia rate of $36.99 per hour, that baseline works out to roughly $19,400–$20,300. We deliberately use a lower $15,000 illustrative estimate for this giving example. Actual hours and value vary by scope, team, and project length. This estimates student contributions only and excludes industry advisor time. It is not cash disbursed or a matching grant. Nonprofit services are free. View the hourly-rate source.
