Our Clients
Our philosophy: no two campaigns are the same. We take the time necessary to listen to and learn about our clients’ specific circumstances, vision and goals. We take the time necessary to carefully listen to our client’s input to learn about their specific circumstances, vision, mission and goals. There is not a “one size fits all” successful fundraising strategy. Each solution we develop meets specific needs and goals with keen consciousness of the current environment, challenges, potential contributors and targeted stakeholders. As a funding partner, we pride ourselves on developing high-quality programmatic and fundraising pieces that speak to the character and philanthropic philosophy of the client.

We realized Funding Solutions was the ideal partner. Their team does much more than raise funds. Their complete approach -- with leadership development, program development and problem solving -- is unequaled. Whether it’s for a first – or next – campaign, I recommend you contact them.
