Impact Investing

We believe that financial returns and positive social outcomes are not mutually exclusive. Impact investing, which applies this philosophy, has gained popularity on a national and international scale in recent years. We work to localize this concept, advising and supporting businesses, philanthropy, and non-profits to make better decisions for their community and their bottom line.

Strategic Planning and Organizational Design

We help organizations define their long-term objectives and make decisions on allocating resources to pursue them. This includes gathering qualitative data via design workshops, focus groups, and interviews, which can reveal organizational gaps and opportunities for growth. We also help organizations use and explore quantitative data and use this data to set a strategic vision and measurable outcomes that can be tracked and monitored.
