An extension of your team
You don’t have to do it alone.
Running a nonprofit can mean wearing ten different hats at once.
Programs, funding, grants, reporting, compliance, donors, boards, volunteers and day-to-day operations pile up fast. The mission is what brought you here, and it is often the first thing that gets squeezed.
That’s where YES! Agency comes in. We work as an extension of your organization: identifying what’s holding you back, organizing priorities, pursuing funding opportunities and building the systems your nonprofit needs to move forward.

In their words
What people say about working with Yanira
“I’ve covered Yanira and the work she does with Three Virtues, as they were recently awarded a Miami-Dade County grant. In doing so, I witnessed just how invested and involved she was in her work with them. Now knowing she is extending her services to more nonprofits, I can safely say they are in for a treat and a treasure, with her on their side.”
“I’ve had the privilege of watching YES! Agency LLC grow from concept phase to full on business. Her strong points as an employee are that she has a quick turn around rate for work completion, works great in collaborative environments, and injects a sense of humor and her good spirit into every project/assignment. She came to Three Virtues Organization, Inc as a volunteer however she does such good work, I hired her.”
“Why YES!? Well if you need a virtual assistant that is efficient, timely, professional, responsive, and responsible then this is where you need to be. Working with her on different projects allowed me to experience firsthand her level of dedication to all her customers and integrity. I would recommend her services in both as a grant writer and as a virtual assistant to anyone that wants nothing but the best.”
“I started working with Yanira a few months ago. She is a breath of fresh air, extremely passionate about serving her customers and her community. She’s a skilled, generous, and kind soul that I wish every business could have a chance to work with.”
“I had the pleasure of working with Yanira on the Don’t Touch Me movement powered by 82ways 501c3. She was a key asset to the organization’s structure. She was very organized, very passionate, and extremely knowledgeable in her field. She wasn’t afraid to think outside the box and was always ready to tackle the next task.”
“Working with Yanira is always an excellent experience. She will spend the time necessary to really understand your needs, be ahead of schedule on objectives & deadlines, all while smiling and having a terrific spirit. We always look forward to working with her.”
