Another key asset multiplier is seizing the opportunity to combine the hard-won institutional knowledge of one’s organization with the double-sided expertise of a research collaborator.

A nonprofit’s service providers are critical to mission fulfillment. These souls can be likened to the ‘hands’ of the organization, who are handling the day-to-day tasks and staying in contact with the communities being served. They can also be likened to the glue holding the organization together.
The opportunity enshrined by this outlook is seeing collaborations aimed at forward movement as asset multipliers with the potential to seed tremendous growth, however it is internally defined.
November 19, 2025 at 6:44 PM
For nonprofits, especially, asset multiplication is critical in an environment where the growing list of community needs is outpacing funding levels. In such environments nonprofits are challenged to widen their donor bases while sustaining their existing relationships.
The world around us looks different when we see our fellow humans as asset-bearing beings. This perspective embodies the recognition that regardless of attainments, education, or background—living in this world means having something to offer that is worthy of hearing.

I identified 25 neighborhoods in Metro Atlanta that are economically disadvantaged in comparison to most metro area metrics yet have higher-than-metro area median home values.

I dig into this puzzle and discuss the implications.

In our everyday lives it is natural to take important relationships for granted. But nonprofit leaders who recognize that relationships are a vital currency cannot afford any gaps in awareness.

Our research closes these gaps in the spirit of 'advancing together.'

This table, sourced from the 2023 American Community Survey (Five-Year Estimates), gets to the essence of housing realities in the Atlanta MSA and many other metros. If this is the reality in neighborhoods with household incomes above the MSA median, imagine the neighborhoods below the MSA median.
