Real Deliverables. Not Worksheets.

Over 6 weeks you build 13 real documents inside your Alleviate account — a LogFrame, program budget, proposal draft, Board Charter, governance checklist, and a 90-Day Transformation Plan. No busy work. No certificates for watching videos.

A Coach in Your Corner

Every submission is reviewed personally by your coach. Feedback within 5 business days. You are not doing this alone.

A Certificate Worth Sharing

Built on insights from 500+ NGO assessments across Africa, Asia, and North America. Graduates receive the Alleviate Transformation Program certificate — shareable directly to LinkedIn and attachable to funding applications.

About the Course

Most nonprofits are not underfunded because their work is not valuable. They are underfunded because they are not structured in a way that funders can trust. This six-week program gives you the systems, documents, and digital presence to change that — built directly inside your Alleviate account, with a coach reviewing every submission.

Meet Your Lead Instructor,  Robert Okine

Robert Okine is the founder of Alleviate and a UN SDG Pioneer for Digital Innovation and Inclusion, based in Washington, DC. Over the past 15 years, he has led the design and delivery of national and regional digital systems for UNICEF, UNDP, the World Bank, USAID, and FAO, working across more than 60 countries in Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and the Pacific. He is also a graduate of the Stanford Seed Transformation Program for Leaders in Emerging Economies. Robert created the Alleviate Transformation Program because readiness is not about technology first — it is about governance, systems, and clarity. This program gives NGO leaders the structure to build all three. Robert personally reviews every submission and serves as your coach throughout the six-week program.
