On behalf of United Managed Care, Alzheimer's Support Group, I want to express my profound gratitude to the Kannico Agency for the opportunity to attend Saturday's "Board Readiness Training" Please be assured that the experience gained from such valuable and resourceful training will empower my organization to deliver a much higher level of service to the communities I represent. Thanks for providing such an opportunity, and I look forward to future collaboration and networking with the Kannico Agency.

The free webinars that Kirsten and her team provide have inspired me to step out of my comfort zone and have made a meaningful difference to my nonprofit. These webinars are relevant and practical and have included board governance, working with AI and grant research and preparation. They offer actionable advice that can be immediately applied. For an 8 year old non profit, having access to these up-to-date webinars is invaluable. The opportunity to ask questions and receive real-time answers enhances the learning experience.This is a supportive, nonjudgmental group who genuinely care about supporting smaller nonprofits. It’s rare to find firms that caters to smaller nonprofits, especially those who don't have the budget to hire additional assistance. These webinars are helping me take this nonprofit to the next level. Working with Kirsten and her team has been and continues to be a wonderful positive experience.

“Working with Kirsten Stevens in The Bahamas several years ago has benefited the organization I founded and myself. It was her diligence and keenness in writing effective grants that inspired me to develop an organization, which is now a 501(c)(3) Tax Exempt Organization in the United States. Her people’s personality and professionalism has given us at The National L.E.A.D. Institute full confidence in her capabilities in assisting our North Carolina Operations to become a premiere Nonprofit within that State.”

“Working with you has been magical. I can’t tell you what a relief it was to have you leading our search while we navigated a busy season in the midst of COVID-19. If it weren’t for you, I don’t think we would have made any progress….and we definitely wouldn’t have someone as strong as Lisa starting so soon! It’s been a pleasure and I’ll sing your praises to anyone who will listen!”

“It is an honor and privilege to be participants in the most recent online bi-weekly coaching webinars presented by The Kannico Agency and presented by CEO, Kirsten Stevens and her Team. The experience is positive, informative, inspiring, empowering and motivating. We will not hesitate to recommend any start up, growth & goal – oriented, expanding, and ambitious 501(c)3 organization to consider the Kannico Agency for Coaching needs.”

I have been working with Kirsten Stevens since I first discovered the Kannico Agency and it has been no less than stellar! The resources provided after the informative webinars (FREE), the opportunity to speak one-on-one with a real human, and the personal touch for concern with what you're doing in and with your business is priceless! And so far it has been "priceless"! Non-profits struggle with so much in the beginning and to be able to discuss and toss ideas around with experts in the business is a rare find these days. I highly recommend this group to any business, profit or non, when you're considering consultants or business strategists! They'll help get you to your goals!
