HR Consulting for Nonprofits

Nonprofit organizations face people challenges that are very different from those in the for-profit world. Limited budgets, complex compliance obligations, volunteer involvement, and governance realities mean that standard HR models often fall short. TSERGAS Human Capital works alongside nonprofit organizations to provide practical, flexible HR support that reflects the realities of mission-driven work.

Whether your organization is growing, navigating risk, or operating without an internal HR function, we help you stay compliant, support your people, and build sustainable HR practices that align with your values and long-term goals.

Our fractional HR approach gives nonprofits access to experienced HR leadership and hands-on support—without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire—so you can stay focused on your mission while we manage the people side of your organization.

Who We Support

We work with a wide range of nonprofit and not-for-profit organizations, including:

  • Small and mid-sized nonprofits
  • Charities and foundations
  • Start-up and high-growth nonprofit organizations
  • Organizations without in-house HR resources
  • Executive Directors and Boards seeking independent HR guidance

How Fractional HR Support Works for Nonprofits

Fractional HR services allow nonprofit organizations to access experienced HR support on a flexible, cost-effective basis. Instead of maintaining a full internal HR department, nonprofits can rely on ongoing HR guidance that scales with their needs.

Through our fractional HR support, we provide hands-on assistance with day-to-day HR matters while also addressing strategic, compliance, and people-related challenges as they arise.

Our approach is collaborative, practical, and grounded in real-world nonprofit experience. We adapt our support to your organization’s size, structure, funding realities, and workforce model.

“We engaged TSERGAS Human Capital to complete a human resources review, develop a new organizational structure and job descriptions commensurate with roles and responsibilities reflecting the new structure; and to provide an implementation plan. Effie provided excellent strategic advice and Cierra interviewed our board and team members to gather information and to gain a thorough understanding of our operations and functions, to enable her to complete the work. We are extremely pleased with the final products and hope to continue our engagement with TSERGAS Human Capital for our future human resources needs. Not only did Effie and Cierra deliver everything we asked for on time and on budget, their values of equity and inclusion and feminist perspectives align with our organization. This made the engagement all the more successful.”

Nuzhat Jafri, Executive Director, Canadian Council of Muslim Women (CCMW)

“Effie has been with GreenSaver at a challenging time of complex business and organizational growth, and assisted us with all aspects of HR management. She is extremely well organized, communicative, passionate about the organization and the people she works with, and will follow through to get things done. She works well across the whole organization, whether it involves interactions with C-Level executives, management or staff. She has been very effective in analyzing our situation, recommending changes and then assisting us in practically implementing them. Her biggest achievement has been in finding and recruiting a large number of excellent people to join our organization, and contribute to its success. I warmly recommend Effie, especially for smaller to mid-size organizations, who can most effectively benefit from her skills and experience.”

Vladan Veljovic, President & CEO, GreenSaver

“Cierra is one of the most down to earth, positive and creative personalities with whom I’ve had the pleasure to work with. Cierra recruited me for an interview with GreenSaver for the position of Manager, Customer Support. I can’t thank her enough for all her contributions to me landing the role. Her style, innovative thinking, and creativity coupled with her professional business acumen are unparalleled. Cierra is truly one-of-a-kind, and I’d highly recommend her to any employers looking to take their business to the next level. She has incredible skill in balancing the personal and the business side of things while making sure deliverables and expectations were met. Cierra’s sense of accountability, her knowledge of HR best practices, and her ability to deliver is unmatched. She also maintained her professionalism through a number of challenging situations we dealt with. I have observed first-hand how versatile she is, and how she is able to adapt to different environments, cultures, and leadership styles. Thank you, Cierra, for everything you contributed to the organization and nothing but the best of luck on wherever your journey takes you.”

Raj Thiyagarasa, Manager, Client Support, GreenSaver
