There is a vast difference between knowing what needs to be done, and actually making it happen. When we started ALTRUICITY in 2010, we recognized that organizations needed more than a coach or consultant to strategize their fundraising and marketing campaigns. They needed a solid project management approach that could take the strategies and drill them down to doable tasks, making them routine and permanent habits. Our job is to provide best in class strategies, by leveraging the annual capital and endowment campaign expertise of our experienced team. We then stay on board ensuring they get put into action with the benchmarks for success tied directly to new donor acquisition, donor retention and donor increases. In short, we are here to ensure you are hitting your fundraising goals. We believe in the vital work of nonprofits, and hope you join our family, so we can ensure you grow and accomplish your mission.
