The Catalyst Center for Nonprofit Management
The Catalyst Center is a management consulting and training firm working with nonprofits to improve their effectiveness through private consultation as well as through our Nonprofit Management Training Series. Launched in 2000, The Center began as an extension of Bee, Bergvall & Co.’s accounting and auditing services. Realizing the need for concentrated consulting and educational programming for the nonprofit sector in Bucks County, the Bucks County Center for Nonprofit Management was formed. The Center very quickly saw its influence move beyond Bucks County and later re-branded as the Catalyst Center for Nonprofit Management.
“Your growth is our mission!”
