Strategy
for the
common good.

We help mission-driven organizations bridge the gap between ambitious vision and sustainable institutional practice.

001 / What we believe

Complexity is a feature of impact — not a bug to be managed away.

We believe in slow strategy and certain outcomes. We avoid the frantic pace of typical consulting in favor of deep, institutional transformation.

002 / What we do

Six disciplines,
one practice.

Grant Writing

Full proposals built from blank page to submission. Foundation, federal, and state funders.

Editing

Line-by-line revision of drafts you've already written. Sharper, tighter, fundable.

Funder Research

Vetted prospect lists with alignment notes and giving history — not a database dump.

Strategy

Multi-year development plans that diversify revenue beyond any single funder.

Board & Capacity

Coaching and retreats that turn boards into active fundraising partners.

Program Design

Theory of change and outcome frameworks that make your work measurable.

003 / How we work

Slow at first.
Then certain.

i.

Sit with the work

Two weeks reading prior proposals, program docs, and evaluation reports. We ask the questions program officers will ask.

ii.

Find the through-line

We surface the single argument that makes the funding inevitable. Everything else gets arranged behind it.

iii.

Write, edit, deliver

Drafts in your voice, not ours. Revision until the document reads like the funder wrote the brief themselves.

004 / Who we serve

Small teams doing large work.

We work best with organizations between $200K and $10M in annual budget — past the founding scramble, not yet bound up in institutional process.

  • Youth development & education
  • Climate & environmental justice
  • Arts & culture organizations
  • Public health & community wellness
  • Civic engagement & policy
005 / Begin

Tell us what's next.

A grant in three weeks. A campaign in three years. The earlier we hear from you, the better the work.
