Consulting Services for Funders
Generate more value and impact from your funding dollars.
While funders are committed to affecting positive change for the causes that are important to them, they are also looking for high quality impact investment and/or philanthropy opportunities. The good news is there is a growing number of innovative finance and strategic philanthropy models emerging designed to better align with the desired risk, return and impact equations of funders.
To help funders take advantage of these emerging opportunities, I offer consulting services across a range of relevant topics, which can be engaged with separately or together based on needs:
Impact Thesis
Compare your past and current funding activities against your goals and map learnings into a cohesive impact thesis that clearly outlines your motivations, the change you are looking to create, the types of investments you make and other important details and criteria.

Innovative Finance & Strategic Philanthropy Models
Adopt innovative finance and strategic philanthropy models that align with your impact thesis, utilizing an evaluation framework that considers your costs, affordability and future funding plans to achieve the right funding mix for your organization.
