Our Philosophy

No matter your consulting needs — planning studies, capital campaigns, endowment growth, major gift efforts, annual giving, or planned giving — our consultants are committed to your fundraising success. With more than 30 years of service to nonprofit clients, we have developed a firm philosophy of fundraising consulting that is based on the belief that each client is unique, has their own particular resources, and is in a unique place in its culture of philanthropy. Our recommendations and coaching are based on those factors and are tailored to those needs.

That commitment to tailoring our advice is coupled with bringing our real-world fundraising experience to the table. Our advice is not from a textbook; it is based on years and years of successful fundraising practice. We have conducted fundraising campaigns in a variety of circumstances and with a variety of organizations, and we will bring that breadth of knowledge to your organization. 

Our philosophy — and our most important goal — is to help you become so good at fundraising that you no longer need our service. We want your culture of philanthropy to become strong enough that you are better positioned to raise even more money without our continued counsel.
