The HBS Club of Connecticut Community Partners recently partnered with Time for Lyme (TFL), a nonprofit dedicated to eliminating the devastating effects of Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses. Founded in 1998, TFL has raised millions of dollars, lobbied for federal funding and action to prevent the disease, been an information clearinghouse, and helped establish the country’s first endowed research dedicated to finding a cure for the disease. The HBS club provided pro bono consulting to help TFL identify ways to achieve greater results. Said the Connecticut club’s Nancy Tafoya (MBA ’80), “Nonprofits that achieve the greatest success are run like a business and incorporate the passion of their creators.”
