"Through sport, mentoring and education, we give young people what they need to grow, learn from one another and break down social and cultural barriers. For us, it's really important that they achieve their dreams and never give up. ToolBox doesn't help us financially, but it helps us with experts. And we're lucky to have several of them over the year, not counting the personal coaches. It helps us enormously. It keeps us on track. For me, ToolBox is a pillar in the development of our organisation. So thank you, ToolBox."

What we help with 

ToolBox connects your organisation with volunteer professionals who share their expertise. Not funding, not generic training, but hands-on, personalised support to help you strengthen your organisation from the inside, so you can create lasting impact.

A few examples of areas where we can support you:


"Our board needs renewing. Which profiles do we need?"

"We want clearer decision-making and better-defined working relationships between the board and the executive team."

Good governance


"Are we still meeting the needs of the people we serve?

"What should we look like in five years?"


Mission, vision and values


"We feel the need to diversify our revenue streams."

"We want to rethink our revenue model."


Financial sustainability

"We struggle to reach our target audience and are looking for new ways and channels to get our message across."

"How can we free up time by digitalising our operations further?”


Operational efficiency


"I can feel isolated at the head of my organisation and would love a space to think out loud." 

"I sometimes struggle when faced with conflict situations in my team."

Leadership & team management
