On February 1, Bridge Builder Strategies joined WISH-TV’s BEO Show for a conversation about partnership, purpose, and the long-term health of the nonprofit sector.
During the segment, Mike Simmons of Bridge Builder Strategies and Emil Ekiyor of InnoPower discussed the shared vision that brought our organizations together: building thriving communities by strengthening the nonprofit institutions at their core.
The conversation centered on what it truly takes for nonprofits to sustain impact. Beyond funding, organizations need clarity in their internal operations, alignment around long-term strategy, and the capacity to plan for the future with confidence. When these elements work together, nonprofits are positioned not just to operate — but to endure and grow their impact over time.
As Mike shared in the interview, our partnership is grounded in the belief that communities flourish when the organizations serving them are healthy, aligned, and sustainable. By combining InnoPower’s commitment to expanding access to capital with Bridge Builder Strategies’ focus on strategic clarity and operational alignment, we aim to amplify impact where it matters most.
We are grateful for the opportunity to share this vision publicly and to continue partnering with leaders who are committed to building strong, sustainable organizations.
