    Organization EffectivenessAchievements Unlimited Foundation, the supporting organization of Impact Foundation (collectively the "Foundations"), recognizes that many nonprofit organizations often lack expertise and financial resources to invest in organizational assessments, strategic planning and highly effective fundraising training to ensure their organization's effectiveness and long-term sustainability. The Foundations partnered with Dakota Medical Foundation, unrelated nonprofit organization, through the Impact Institute (Institute) to provide support, education, training, and coaching sessions for nonprofit partner organizations. Since inception in 2005, the institute has trained nonproft executives and directors from over 500 nonprofit organizations trained in Institute and fundraising concepts.Nonprofit Board and Management Training: Training boards and key management personnel to operate their organizations in a highly effective and efficient manner is a key education focus for the Foundations. Having encouraged many area nonprofit organizations to attend the Institute's education and training programs, in 2020, the Institute helped readily-equip 500 charity organizations to solve complex community challenges. With a particular focus in fundraising, many charities continued their professional development in a fundraising curriculum and coaching program called High Impact Fundraising. This program was developed to build a mastery of fundraising and leadership. As a result of participating in fundraising training, a study of 21 nonprofit organizations showed community support on Giving Hearts Day increased over a twelve-year period from $353,000 in donations in 2008 to $2.5 million in donations in 2020.Grant Writing Services: Since 2005, the Foundations have supported grant writing assistance for health-related nonprofit organizations to generate additional financial resources for their programs. Since the formal addition of grant writing assistance, the Foundations and other regional nonprofit organizations have secured over $28.9 million in grant funding.
