Volunteer: Three to Five Year Strategic Plan

This is a volunteer opportunity provided by Taproot Foundation, a nonprofit creating social change through pro bono connections. braveONE is growing quickly, and we’re looking for support creating a clear strategic plan for the next 3–5 years. We want to strengthen our current program, prepare for national growth, build sustainable funding, grow chapters, and plan for future programs like summer camp. We’d like help identifying our biggest priorities, setting realistic goals, and creating a roadmap that keeps us focused as we grow. A 3–5 year strategic plan with clear priorities, goals, action steps, and measures of success. braveONE Mission: braveONE is a first-of-its-kind mentorship program connecting children living with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) with screened, trained adult mentors who live with T1D too. Through intentional one-to-one relationships built around shared interests, personality and lived experience, we help kids feel less alone and more confident growing up with T1D. In just over a year, braveONE has grown to 50+ matches across 19 states, creating 134+ outings and nearly 300 hours of connection between kids and mentors. More than 150 families are currently waiting for a mentor. Our mission is simple: no child should have to navigate Type 1 Diabetes feeling like they are the only one.
