Investment Oversight & Advisory Support

Supporting the long-term work your organization exists to do.

Nonprofit organizations are built around purpose. Financial resources support that purpose, but they are rarely the focus.

Resolute works with nonprofit leaders, boards, and committees to provide investment oversight and advisory support that aligns with an organization’s mission, governance policies, and long-term responsibilities.

A conversation to learn more about your organization and determine alignment.

Stewardship Comes With Responsibility

For many organizations, investment assets represent years of donor trust and board oversight. Decisions are shaped by mission priorities, written policies, the balance between current needs and long-term sustainability.

Oversight can involve trade-offs, changing leadership, and differing perspectives around risk and spending.

At Resolute, our own work is informed by a belief that resources can be managed with both care and purpose. Internally, this perspective is reflected in what we refer to as our Giving Box — a simple framework that reminds us to consider stewardship, impact, and responsibility alongside financial decisions. While every organization approaches giving differently, this mindset shapes how we engage with nonprofit partners.

Working With Nonprofit Decision-Makers

Resolute serves as a resource for nonprofit boards and committees as they evaluate options and carry out their oversight responsibilities. Our work may include:

  • Assisting with the development and review of investment policies
  • Supporting portfolio oversight within established guidelines
  • Providing education and context for board and committee discussions
  • Offering guidance as leadership or committee composition changes

The goal is not to direct outcomes, but to support thoughtful, well-documented decision-making within each organization’s governance framework.
