New Shared Services Program for Not-for-Profits

In spring 2025, Community Sector Network of PEI will launch the Shared Services Program, designed to strengthen community organizations by pooling resources.

The program will help cut down on administrative burdens and reduce costs. Participating not-for-profit organizations will be able to access professional services in Accounting, HR, Marketing, IT, Grant Writing, Fundraising, General Administration, and more at reduced rates, with subsidies available.

Organizations can apply to participate in the program and business specialists can apply to become a vetted service provider. For more information and to apply, contact Shared Services Navigator Haley Ha at [email protected] or 902-388-4692.
