Introducing the Philanthropitch Columbus 2021 Finalists

 

These 6 nonprofits will pitch at Philanthropitch Columbus presented by American Electric Power Foundation on May 18, 2021!

We are so grateful to every nonprofit that applied, and enjoyed learning about so many passionate organizations from different stages of the nonprofit journey. Choosing only 6 finalists was a challenge! Ultimately, we chose this group of nonprofits for their innovative ideas and potential to create a lasting impact on the Columbus community.

Over the next 8 weeks, we’ll be working closely with these organizations through hands-on training and 1:1 coaching sessions to help them prepare their pitch, and develop a business model that will sustain long after the 2021 Philanthropitch season.
