Companis is a Seattle-based nonprofit organization, founded in 1994 to address gaps in quality professional staffing experienced by nonprofit agencies due to budget limitations and the growing requests for service provision among our neighbors in crisis.
Companis will celebrate its 15th Anniversary with delicious food by award winning chef Chris Keff of Flying Fish, music by Jordan Peterson of UW & Diverse Harmony, and a dramatic piece performed by Book-It Repertory Theater.
Companis matches professional volunteer and community workers with nonprofit agencies in need of staffing assistance. In addition to a core group of full-time volunteer professionals who commit to working for client agencies for at least one year (and who may receive a stipend); Companis also serves as a matchmaker to connect talented part-time volunteers from the community with nonprofits who need their specialized skills.
