We believe the more love you pour into your fundraising, the happier your donors will be. That’s why we take on only a small caseload of charity partners at one time. We aim to care more about your campaigns than you do — and to do that, we must stay laser-focused on every single detail. From strategy to storytelling to supporter experience, we pour our energy into crafting campaigns where every donor feels seen, valued, and loved.
I fell in love with digital fundraising after trying my hand in almost all areas of donation generation. On the agency side, I’ve worked for Face-to-Face, Telemarketing and Digital-Only Agencies. On the charity side I’ve worked in Philanthropy and Major Gifts.
One thing remains the same: knowing your donor, knowing your charity, and being able to connect the two through great storytelling is THE ONLY WAY to build long-lasting donor relationships. Digital is special because of the scale it gives you to tell your story far and wide. In fundraising, we have only just scraped the surface of its potential to inspire more donors to give to causes they love.
