Per Aspera Ad Astra Dum Spiro Spero
Through hardship to the stars while I breathe I hope
At VincentViktoria, we’ve reimagined the KaffeeKlatsch for this era of nonprofit challenge and change.
In a time when grant funding shrinks, community need surges, and professional isolation deepens, we believe the most powerful solution isn’t to do more with less—it’s to get stronger together.
And that means building something more honest, more human, and more connected.
Our vision is to cultivate:
Stellar Connections — deep relationships among nonprofit peers, and
Interstellar Networks — bold collaborations that reach across sectors, identities, and roles, including those who fund, those who lead, and those who serve.
That’s why the VincentViktoria KaffeeKlatsch welcomes both nonprofit professionals and donors who are committed to the public good. Because if we are truly going to rise to meet the moment, we need a space that allows for shared wisdom, mutual insight, and cross-sector resolve.
VincentViktoria aims to create a space for nonprofit professionals and donors to gather, grow, and ground themselves in shared purpose—week by week, conversation by conversation. Guided by the motto Per Aspera Ad Astra, Dum Spiro Spero—through hardship to the stars, while I breathe I hope—we believe in resilience, wisdom, and the power of collective momentum.
Over time, as participation grows, our ripple effects might be profound: stronger leaders, healthier organizations, more resilient networks, and a nonprofit sector that’s better equipped to meet the moment—and shape the future.
Why It Matters Now
Too often, the people doing life-changing work are doing it in silos—stretched thin, unsupported, and unseen. And too often, donors who care deeply about community impact are disconnected from the frontline challenges and collaborative problem-solving that could amplify their giving.
VincentViktoria KaffeeKlatsch exists to change that by building a rhythm of relationship and resilience—one Friday at a time.
Through weekly gatherings, we bring together nonprofit minds from across roles—executives, fundraisers, board members, communicators, operations leaders, and more—with donors who want to learn, grow, and lead alongside them. Each 50-minute session is designed to restore, inform, and connect.
And we’ve priced these sessions intentionally—so that access isn’t the barrier. (Just $20/month after a free first month.)
This is about cultivating a field of trust that leads to more sustainable leadership, stronger organizations, and a sector-wide ecosystem that’s both more resilient and more relational.
