Reach
Reach Development Partners is a fundraising consulting firm that exists to partner with nonprofit organizations, schools, churches, and other entities to help them meet their fundraising needs, and fulfill their missions.
Philosophy
Many organizations have dedicated Board or volunteer leaders, a story to tell that is compelling, and even a donor pool that is willing — but simply haven’t known where to begin.
Do we need to hire a full-time development staff member? Do we need to purchase fundraising tools? What kinds of materials do we need to create? How do we ask for money?
Elevating your fundraising process doesn’t need to be an intimidating step… and most organizations are much closer to new revenues than they realize.
Reach Development Partners serves as an approachable partner to help your organization develop its case for funding, organize and expand your prospect pool, empower and activate your leaders, and implement a plan of action that is built on proven success.
