Services
Our Strategic Consultancy provides you with research-informed advice and expertise to help guide your funding strategies and decision-making processes.
VISION, CASE & PRIORITY SETTING
We can assist you with the critical elements of envisioning the future of your organization’s mission delivery; articulating the need for support, including clear priorities for philanthropic support; and developing a Case for Support that shows prospective donors the difference they can make by supporting your prioritized needs.
Our Audit and Assessment services can help you generate philanthropic income by assessing your current situation and performance. Our services range from assessing current operational performance through a Fundraising Audit and Review, to customized assessments for philanthropic naming, organizational cultural perception and stewardship.
For many, the issue is maximizing philanthropic support to achieve goals and heighten impact. We apply our knowledge of best fundraising practices and philanthropy to assess the marketplace and develop practical fundraising strategies and plans.
Sometimes you need hands-on assistance and leadership. We will directly assist with your primary fundraising efforts, whether it’s through temporary on-site management, professional mentoring, coaching and on-boarding, or hands-on delivery.
Our training services (video) provide fundraisers with the skills, knowledge and practical ideas to effectively raise funds to support the important work of your organizations.
Our programs vary from large national programs offered through our accredited National Training Academy – like the Extraordinary Donor Journey – to smaller programs tailored for individual organizations and clients.
All training programs are delivered with adult learning methodologies, and many are eligible for CFRE education credits.
