Not-for-profit marketing
Grow your reach, revenue and impact.
Donors, volunteers and funders each need a different message. We build donor-focused marketing for Ontario charities and nonprofits: lean, accessible, compliant, and easy to explain to your board.
The nonprofit reality
Where nonprofit growth stalls
Small teams, tight overhead ratios and board scrutiny shape every marketing decision. We plan around that.
Donor retention
First gifts are hard to win and harder to renew without a clear stewardship plan.
A small team doing everything
One communications person, a board that wants results and no time for strategy.
Overhead and compliance
Fundraising ratios, CASL, privacy and accessibility rules all affect what you can spend and say.

What clients say
They captured the heart behind our event.
Their photography and video work for the 'It's Still Me' community event was not only professional but heartfelt. As sponsors, they didn't just show up, they supported our cause with care and creativity.

Questions
Do you work within nonprofit budgets?
Yes. We show setup, management and platform fees separately and phase work to your grants, restricted funds and fiscal year.
Is your email work CASL-compliant?
We build consent capture and tracking into donor email programs. For charities, CASL has specific rules about what counts as a commercial message, so we plan each program with your records in view.
When should we start our year-end campaign?
Between May and September. The giving season is won in the summer, when pages, email and creative are built.
