Learn how to approach nonprofits, frame your offer, and start gaining
experience even if you're just starting out.
Breaking into the cybersecurity field can be challenging, especially without real-world experience. Nonprofits often lack the resources to address their cybersecurity needs, presenting a unique opportunity. Pitch the Project equips you with the tools and guidance to approach these organizations, showcase your skills, and gain valuable experience while making a meaningful impact.
Nonprofits face increasing cyber risks — but most don’t have full-time staff, formal training, or even basic cybersecurity policies in place. Many leaders feel overwhelmed or unsure where to begin, even when they know action is needed. At the same time, you’re looking for real-world experience that proves what you can do. Pitch the Project helps you meet that need — by offering practical, low-risk support that helps protect their mission and builds your credibility at the same time. You’re not selling a service — you’re solving a problem together.
