Donate
Every donation makes it possible for NWIRC to continue to ignite the flame of innovation in our communities! While our programs are focused towards inventors and entrepreneurs, we have many projects we run that are geared towards sparking innovation in high school and college students. Like our design thinking workshop for high schoolers and internship programs for students to engage with startup businesses.
No matter the size of your donation, your dollars matter! Remember -as a 501(c)3 your donation is tax deductible (you’ll receive a letter from us regarding your donation).
Volunteer
Our unique business model is focused on finding mentors and resources in the communities we serve to help support our clients. We’ve developed our programs to have a Just-In-Time Mentorship™ model where clients are paired with community mentors and resources at the right time. This helps prevent mentor fatigue and makes the most out of their time. We are always looking for mentors and resources who are ready to share their knowledge and pay it forward to another entrepreneur. If you have skill sets that can help entrepreneurs, we’d love to hear from you.
*Due to the sensitive nature of working with early stage entrepreneurs we ask all our mentors to sign our Mentor Agreement. Please review the document, if you have questions please contact us.
