Partner with Marigold
Marigold helps parents understand their child's IEP, track their goals, and find real support. When a family is ready, we connect them to organizations like yours, matched to the exact goals you help with. You grow your impact where it matters most.
Marigold is a program of Forever Forward, a nonprofit that uses technology to open doors for families who've too often been left outside them. We built Marigold because understanding your child's plan shouldn't require a translator.
When a parent finally understands, everything changes. They ask better questions, they follow through at home, and their child moves forward. Partnering with Marigold puts your organization right there, in that moment, as the help a family was hoping to find.
Parents
Especially in underserved communities, who walk into IEP meetings unsure of what's being decided for their child. Marigold puts the plan in plain language and hands them their confidence back.
Children
Whose goals move faster when the right therapy, program, or mentor is part of their week, not just their paperwork.
Organizations like yours
Doing the real work on the ground, by connecting you to the exact families you're built to serve.
A directory listing is the least of it. Here's what partnership really gives you.
Parents come to Marigold right after an IEP meeting, motivated and ready to act. You reach them exactly when they're looking for what you do.
We surface your organization to families by their child's goal areas and your location, so every family who sees you is a genuine fit.
Families request your services for a specific IEP goal, with the basics you need to say yes: age, languages, access needs, insurance. They come to you ready, and you track each one in your own partner portal.
You tell us what you can and can't accommodate. We only send you families you can truly welcome, which means better matches and happier first visits.
Garden partners get a living impact page: how many families found you through Marigold, how many children that means, and which goals they brought you. Real numbers for your board, funders, and team.
Featured placement, your logo and story up front, and a spotlight that tells families you stand with them.
Marigold exists to empower underserved families. Partnering puts your name beside that promise and connects you to the community you serve.
Share what you offer and, just as important, what you can and can't accommodate. We only recommend organizations that can truly welcome the child in front of them, so honest answers here are what make this work. Once we know you a little, we'll show you the ways to join.
