Plan for national launch of an Australian youth services charity
Whitelion engaged Nous to plan its national launch starting in South Australia. Whitelion is a youth justice not-for-profit, established in 1999 to service the needs of 'hard end youths' and to break the 'cycle of disappointment' to give young people new opportunities.
Nous conducted a due diligence study to validate the merits of expanding nationally. Nous subsequently developed detailed business, implementation and financial plans for Whitelion. To develop these plans, Nous consulted local stakeholders and key community figures in new markets, met with Whitelion’s board, examined successful and unsuccessful NFP expansions and developed several expansion options for expansion before the Board selected a preferred model.
The Board committed to full implementation of the national expansion and Whitelion has subsequently prospered nationally.
