Major gifts & planned giving

Give people a closer
connection to the mission.

Meaningful support grows from a clear understanding of the work and a personal reason to care. We design donor experiences and conversations that connect those two things.

Make the mission tangible.

Small-group mission and facility experiences with purposeful program stops, prepared staff, and executive and board participation.

Connect interest to an opportunity.

Tailored funding conversations and thoughtful solicitation preparation, grounded in the donor’s interests and readiness.

Keep the relationship moving.

Individual follow-up, stewardship, and legacy program development that support a lasting relationship.

01 / Position & communicate

02 / Engage & connect

Make the relationship matter.

Bring your story into campaigns, events, and partnerships. Deep event and corporate social responsibility experience helps connect an organization’s public presence with meaningful participation.

03 / Lead & deliver

Carry the strategy forward.

Translate priorities into practical work with clear responsibilities and follow-through. Executive leadership, business ownership, and fundraising experience bring an understanding of what it takes to deliver.
