Look at what people are saying about the Center! "Mississippi may be last in certain areas, but NOT in service to nonprofits. Our center is simply super! We are 187 years old, and were a bit sleepy and isolated before the Center arrived. They have connected us to a host of great people and new ideas and inspired us to move forward boldly. They helped us cut costs -- through their group insurance programs -- they have helped us with new laws, new benefits, new regulations and great training for our board and staff. I call the Center's annual summer conference "Disneyland for Nonprofits" -- because they have an incredible array of great programs for us to choose from. I always come home inspired to move a couple of mountains." --Nancy Hungerford, Natchez Children's Home "In the process of truly pulling our (Gulf Coast) community back together...(after Katrina), the Center has been an invaluable resources to us...thanks a million! Your friendship is more valuable than sheetrock!" - Mary Ellen Calvert, Long Term Recovery Committee of Harrison County "Thank you for all the help you have given me to start and maintain Providence Christian School. You have been a true blessing. God bless you for the help you give to others. -- Sister Marcus Gmeinder, Providence Christian School "Without the MS Center we would never have gotten a 501(c)3 charter to serve the needy girls around Duck Hill, MS. We turned to the center in desperation -- after our accountant wasted over a year. What a great service at such a modest fee. I am so thankful there's a place like the Center to help us Mississippians help ourselves. --Donna Prather "You folks are the essential guide for any novice trying to start a nonprofit in Mississippi. Without you, I wouldn't have gotten to first base in starting my new blues museum. You are also the number to call with critical donor questions. Thanks to your help, we received a record collection worth nearly a million dollars and pro bono legal assistance. The center is so great to deal with that I love calling them for help!" --Greg Wilcox, Farish Street Blues Museum "We wish to take this opportunity to express to you our sincere appreciation for the service we have received from MCN. Our newly formed nonprofit faith-based organization recently became a member of MCN, and have already made several phone calls for assistance; that, we must add, were quickly and friendly handled by the person answering the telephone, our first contact....Secondly, we received a copy of the MCN publication Principles & Practices for Nonprofit Management Excellence. It's terrific and answers many of the questions that we need to be an effective and complying organization. Again, we are excited about being members of the Mississippi Center for Nonprofits, as we endeavor to be of service to the senior citizens of our community." -- Cynthia C. Deemer, Mature Resources Center "I am constantly in deep appreciation for MCN and its generous and exceedingly helpful staff. I really don't know that I would do without you guys! -- Melinda Harthcock, STEPS Coalition
