How we partner with you

  • Designed to evaluate your organization’s ability to raise the philanthropic dollars needed to deliver on mission, Circle Philanthropy Partners uses both qualitative and quantitative analysis to assess your fundraising program, mission statement, goals, staffing, financials, systems and processes, and external leadership.

  • A strong program and strategy will help you reach your fundraising goals whether you are building your first major giving program or launching a new fundraising initiative. Combining analytics with your organization’s specific objectives and resources, we’ll develop strategies and systems that drive success across all donor constituencies.

  • A well-designed campaign feasibility study will give you the clarity and confidence to achieve your fundraising goals. Through data review, research, case testing, and expert analysis, Circle Philanthropy Partners will provide a roadmap to fundraising success, including timelines, systems and process improvements, budgets and resourcing.

  • Circle Philanthropy Partners will guide your campaign from beginning to end, directing and implementing your large-scale fundraising initiative together with volunteer and staff leadership to achieve your targeted results.

  • Fully engaged leadership – internal and external – are essential to fundraising success. Internal organization, metrics development, and goal setting, combined with professional development training, will get your team ready for success.

  • Bringing twenty years of experience, I will work with your organization to fill a specific development need arising from staff disruptions or leadership changes, or simply to lead on a new initiative. Together, we will ensure continuity and keep your development program moving forward without interruption.

  • Circle Philanthropy Partners will help you establish support from private foundations and corporate grantmakers by researching prospects, developing your case for support, and writing grant proposals and reports.
