Sophisticated solutions for small nonprofit organizations making equity-centered impact
Welcome to the khalia effect!
I’m Khalia Shaw, and I’m passionate about empowering nonprofit leaders to harness the power of philanthropy to drive meaningful change. Since launching in late 2022, I’ve had the privilege of partnering with dynamic organizations across the arts, social services, education, mental health, workforce development, and more, in both Cincinnati and my hometown of Cleveland.
At the khalia effect, I believe in using philanthropy as a vehicle to strengthen community-building strategies that create parity, expand access, and amplify the impact of small to mid-sized nonprofits. My mission is to help you build lasting, impactful partnerships and navigate the unique challenges faced by organizations committed to serving others.
As a strong advocate for equity and growth, I’m here to support your organization’s vision and mission with the knowledge, tools, and strategic guidance needed to transform potential into progress. Whether your focus is youth empowerment, cultural development, mental health, or workforce readiness, I’m here to help you achieve lasting impact for the communities we serve together.
