Your Mission, Our “MAPP”
Nonprofit work is hard. You’re juggling people, money, and mission delivery - often without the roadmap or capacity to keep all three moving in the same direction.

People
Build the right team, board, and leadership culture so your mission isn’t resting on one burned-out superhero.

Money
Design smart fundraising strategies, campaigns, and systems that create predictable revenue instead of last-minute scrambles.

Mission
Design your programs and story so donors, partners, and community members instantly see why your mission matters – and what their role can be.
Together, these become your Mission Advancement Partnership Plan (MAPP) - a practical, hopeful roadmap for the next 12–24 months -
and we will be with you every step of the way.
How we can work together:
Mission Advancement Group on Retainer
Ongoing strategic partnership for organizations that want a trusted guide in their corner - not just another report on the shelf.
Best for: Executive directors and advancement leaders who want stability, momentum, and a thinking partner.
Leadership, Board & Team Development
Workshops and coaching that turn leadership and boards into strategic champions, not passive listeners. Coaching can be done in groups and individually.
Best for: Nonprofit leaders who know their people are the multiplier.
Fractional Fundraising Leadership
Too small for a senior hire. Too complex for a junior one. We become an embedded part-time senior fundraising partner, meeting you where you are and getting you to where you are called to be.
Best for: Executive directors and CEOs who need fundraising leadership but aren't ready for a full-time executive position on staff.
Campaign & Fundraising Strategy
Design, refresh, or rescue major fundraising efforts: annual campaigns, capital campaigns, anniversaries, or special projects.
Best for: Organizations facing a big goal, milestone, or “we can’t miss this” moment.

Your Next Step: Book a Compass Call
Sometimes you don’t need another report - you just need to cut through the fog.
A Compass Call is a 30-minute virtual session where we:
-
Talk about where your organization is right now
-
Identify the one or two levers that would create the most movement
-
Decide whether working together makes sense - no pressure, no hard sell
This call is for nonprofit leaders, fundraisers, and board members who are ready to move from
“overwhelmed” to “on a path.”
