Support for the Mission Driven!
Part-time, temporary, and project-based help right when you need it.
Nonprofit work asks small teams to hold a lot at once: serve the community, care for donors, meet grant deadlines, support the board, manage budgets, run events, and keep daily operations moving.
Island 2 Assist, from Island 2 Go!, is a team with over 25 years of experience offering practical support for specific projects or temporary staffing gaps—so your team can spend more time focused on your mission.

Whether you need help catching up, cleaning up your records, or creating a more consistent donor process, we can help you stay organized and connected.

- Grant and funder research

We support your books and work alongside your staff, accountant, or auditor. We are not a CPA firm and do not provide audits or tax opinions.
Board Support
Good board meetings begin with clear, organized information. We can help prepare:
- Board packets and meeting materials
- Financial summaries and reports

We take time to understand how your organization works and create practical systems that fit your team.

We can help with:

- Building simple, useful workflows
- AI tools for research, app building, organization, and communications
- Staff and volunteer training in plain language, virtual and in person

We focus on practical technology your team can actually use and maintain.
