The Nonprofit Sustainability Initiative (NSI) is dedicated to investing in nonprofit organizations during transformative times, such as during strategic restructuring or executive transition. Founded in 2012 by a group of Los Angeles foundations, NSI's mission is to normalize and financially support the exploration of strategic restructuring agreements to aid organizations in sustaining their impact within the communities they serve.
The grant program focuses on improving healthcare access, disease prevention, and community engagement around health issues in South L.A.’s Centinela Valley. It supports core operating, program, project, or capacity building for organizations that increase integration of various health services, facilitate cross-sector collaboration to address health disparities, and support health policy advocacy for universal access to health services. The initiative targets systemic change by supporting efforts that improve the health and quality of life of residents, specifically to benefit economically disadvantaged communities.
