Pro Bono Work
We have contributed thousands of hours in pro bono and discounted services to nonprofit organizations. We select our pro bono clients annually through a formal application process. Each project is valued at $5,000. To apply, you must be a 501c3 in good standing. We focus our pro bono work on projects that can transform an organization long-term. Often, this is a research-based messaging project, a communications roadmap or a program launch. If you are interested in applying for pro bono support, get started by sending us your information.
Our Pro Bono application is currently closed, but you can sign up for our newsletter to be notified when it opens!
