What happens in a KiFor workshop
Teams typically:
-
Learn the real situation through a nonprofit partner brief
-
Work in small groups on practical solutions or support ideas
-
Share outputs the partner can use
-
Leave with clear reflection and next-step commitment
This is designed to be professional and engaging, not additional “busywork.”
Donations are optional and separate
Workshops are a paid service. If your company wants to add a donation, we keep it optional and separate (often direct to the nonprofit for compliance simplicity).
