Welcome to Heart of Des Moines: Growing Nonprofit Impact Together
It all begins with an idea.
At Heart of Des Moines, we believe strong nonprofits build strong communities. From neighborhood initiatives to statewide organizations, the work you do changes lives—and we’re here to make sure you have the support and strategy to keep going.
Our mission is simple: to help nonprofits thrive. We provide consulting, training, and capacity-building services that equip leaders with the tools they need to navigate challenges, tell their stories, and amplify their impact. Whether you’re working through a new strategic plan, facing communication roadblocks, or simply trying to do more with limited staff capacity, Heart of Des Moines is your partner in the work.
Why does this matter? Nonprofit leaders often wear too many hats. Program delivery, fundraising, advocacy, communications, board relations—it’s easy to lose sight of strategy when you’re stretched thin. That’s where we come in. As Des Moines nonprofit consultants, we bring clarity, expertise, and hands-on solutions tailored to your organization’s goals.
This blog will be a space to share insights, practical tips, and stories from the field. We’ll highlight best practices in nonprofit communications, capacity building, and leadership—along with the real challenges that teams like yours face every day.
We invite you to follow along, share your own stories, and explore how Heart of Des Moines can help strengthen your mission. Because when nonprofits succeed, our whole community benefits.
