EXPERTISE

Guiding fundable & findable brands.

Every nonprofit needs tight messaging, strong storytelling, sharp visuals, and cohesive communications to attract and retain donors.

But bold brands are built from the inside out. Before you can be findable externally, you must be fundable internally. That’s why your theory of change and strategic plan must come before your positioning strategy and marketing communications.

We guide early- and growth-stage nonprofits through this process using our Fundable/Findable Framework.

BRAND FIRST, FUNDING SECOND

Nonprofit leaders have countless necessary priorities. But funding isn’t #1. And on the donor side, a foundation’s most valuable asset is not money.

“The Mighty Ally team were such powerful partners for us during a time of great transition. They were nimble, trustworthy, and understood the complexities of the work we were aiming for.”
