OUR MISSION
To build equitable communities guided by trust-based, cross-sector partnerships.
We Continually Inquire
No matter our age, background or experience, everyone on our team believes we still have much to learn - indeed, we strive to be lifelong learners. We cultivate curiosity and encourage our team to ask questions for clarity and to listen for understanding.
We Develop People
We are in a position to help develop the next generation of fundraising and CSR professionals, and we take that responsibility seriously. We strive to be effective mentors and develop the people - colleagues and clients - with whom we work.
We are Deliberate, Steady Changemakers
Our fundraising and CSR strategies are designed to build strong relationships - and increased revenue for our clients - over time. We believe that the best kind of change happens incrementally, and we work with our clients to build programs that are solid and withstand the test of time.
We are Thoughtful Communicators
We are persistent and not pestering. We are responsive and not reactive. We strive to be thoughtful in our communications, both written and verbal. We assume the best in others and give each other the benefit of the doubt.
We Advocate for Trust-Based Philanthropy
We believe strongly in a new framework for philanthropy that addresses the historic power imbalance of funder/funded relationships and builds partnerships based on trust and mutual interests.
