Harvard Alumni Association's Boston Chapter - Helping Local Nonprofits


Since 2014, Maxwell Mulholland has led M+M Strategic Enterprises, LLC, a Winthrop, Massachusetts-based firm that helps clients implement organizational and sales procedures that maximize growth and productivity. An alumnus of the US Navy Academy (USNA), Maxwell Mulholland graduated with honors and a bachelor of science in political science, and was then commissioned as a US Navy officer in 1982. He also holds an MBA from Harvard Business School and maintains membership in the Boston Chapter of the Harvard Alumni Association, which runs a program called Community Action Partners. 

Dedicated to helping local nonprofit organizations succeed, Community Action Partners provides pro-bono consulting from alumni of Harvard Business School and Harvard Kennedy School of Government. To qualify for assistance, greater Boston entities must be 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations or another officially recognized social organization with at least five full-time staff members and a board of directors.

Organizations benefit from a team of six experienced Harvard alumni who each work for two to four hours each week for approximately six months. Qualifying projects include those relating to business or management, such as organizations experiencing challenges in the areas of organizational development, strategic planning, or finance.
