What We Do

We help organizations build a strong base from which to grow and propel their mission forward.

what_we_do
Our Approach
We build participatory, inclusive, comprehensive processes through collaborating closely and listening carefully to our clients. Typically, our inception phase involves working together to plan, create, and co-design the project, so we can factor in the client’s context, constraints, circumstances, and concerns.
Business Planning
A business plan that guides day-to-day operations is the single most critical factor in an organization’s success. We are experts in creating these plans through participatory and inclusive processes that appeal to a variety of stakeholders. Our process helps organizations gain clarity on their mission, set actionable goals, align internally, and plan effectively. It allows the organization to create a plan that can be fully implemented. This positions organizations to achieve outcomes that drive their mission forward.

Outcome Development & Impact Measurement

What is the impact of your work? Whether you are a new organization developing outcome measures for the first time or an experienced nonprofit assessing return on investment, it is key that you are using best practice monitoring and evaluation processes. Sharity helps organizations establish metrics-based goals and monitoring, which positions them to communicate the impact of their work.

Team and Board

Having and retaining the right team – staff, volunteers, board members, and other stakeholders – is critical to any organization’s success. When prospective donors assess whether to give an organization funds, they want to know that the leadership and team can deliver. Sharity can work with you to ensure you have the right people empowered with the requisite tools to propel your organization forward.

Donor ID & Cultivation

Nonprofits often find identifying the right donors is an ongoing challenge. Sharity can help. We start from your inner circle, your board of directors, and community. Sharity conducts an initial evaluation of your donor base and current prospect list using iWave wealth screening software. We use iWave to evaluate potential donors and develop prospect lists. From there we can help you create a cultivation strategy that transforms prospects from names on a list to supporters of your organization.

Fundraising

Nonprofits often experience fundraising as the most difficult, stress-inducing dimension of their work. Grant making processes feel particularly opaque and impenetrable. Sharity demystifies fundraising best practices. We shift organizations from special event and family and friend fundraising to multi-year, major gift-centric sustainable practices. These raise more funds with less work. Our process takes the anxiety out of development work, and allows our clients to focus on achieving their mission.

Thought Leadership & Innovation

Nonprofits often find themselves addressing internal and external issues that seem intractable. To address these issues, innovative solutions are needed. Sharity can partner with you to develop a new approach. This can include developing a pilot or thought leadership project to move the needle on social change, challenge the status quo, or expand your organization’s geographic footprint.
