TAMPA BAY, FL — The Tampa Bay Healthcare Collaborative and Social Venture Partners of Tampa Bay will co-host a virtual, informational networking session on March 1, bringing to the table new tools and programs designed to benefit local organizations and encourage collaboration. An hour-long event, "Tools You Can Use" will focus on demonstrating TBHC's new app, Collaborate, and detailing SVP Tampa Bay's new donation need and volunteer opportunity website. TBHC launched Collaborate in late January during an interactive launch party attended by local and statewide organizations. Developed to help organizations leverage each other's resources and determine when partnerships would be beneficial, Collaborate is TBHC CEO and Executive Director Sheron Brown's vehicle for fostering teamwork. "Our app, Collaborate, supports organizations that deal in health and human services, as well as those whose initiatives involve social determinants of health. By connecting them with each other more efficiently, we hope to increase their opportunities to cohesively partner on projects and share or enhance the donor dollars that will boost health equity initiatives," Brown said. SVP Tampa Bay has a reputation for helping nonprofits develop sustainable models as well as local collaborations. Its new websites, Tampa Bay CARES and Help Connect, showcase the donor needs of participating organizations as well as available volunteer opportunities. "Social Venture Partners is dedicated to continuing to develop strong nonprofits through support and collaboration," said Keara McGraw, SVP's program manager. "We are honored to be partnering with TBHC to bring new ways for nonprofits to work together during these unprecedented times." Attendees to March 1 event can expect to gain new area contacts and viable tools to help develop a strong framework for existing or nascent initiatives.
