FAQ

FAQ

Got questions?

Our team is already stretched thin. How much will this actually ask of us?

We designed our programs with that constraint in mind. The engagement requires a point of contact who can share organizational context and approve deliverables, not someone who manages the project. We do the strategic and production work. Some organizations choose to learn alongside us to build internal capacity over time; others just need the work done. Either model is available, and we will not push you toward one that does not fit.

We have a general sense of what we need, but not a clear goal yet. Can you still help?

We work best with organizations that have a direction, even if they have not yet defined the destination precisely. Part of the intake process is helping you articulate what success looks like. Whether you're trying to build your brand, up attendance to an event, do end-of-year fundraising, optimize your communication workflow, or launch a website, we got you.

We have had bad experiences with consultants or vendors who sold us tools we did not need. How is this different?

We do not sell tools, recommend platforms we have financial relationships with, or introduce technology because it is new or impressive. We start with your goal. Technology, including AI tools, is proposed only when it genuinely fits that goal and the realistic capacity of your team. If the right answer is a simple content calendar and a monthly newsletter, that is what we build.

Does receiving free services come with obligations or conditions we should know about?

Three things: a 60-minute kickoff session to define goals and scope, a post-engagement testimonial if you are satisfied with the work, and a referral to at least one peer nonprofit you think could benefit from our partnership. That is it. No undetermined data-sharing agreements, no ongoing reporting requirements, no paid follow-on services.

How do you think about AI in your work, given how much concern exists in the sector right now?

Carefully. We do not lead with AI. We lead with the goal an organization is trying to achieve. AI tools enter the conversation only when they are genuinely the right fit for that goal and that team. We are aware that significant portions of the nonprofit sector and the communities we serve are skeptical of or concerned about AI, and we think that skepticism is often well-founded. Our Academy curriculum includes a full module on understanding AI critically, covering job displacement, data privacy, and environmental impact, before teaching anyone how to use it—and we live by those values.

How do you handle our organization's information, and what is your content deletion policy?

Any information your organization shares with us, including internal documents, donor data, staff communications, or strategic plans, is used only to complete the work we agreed to do together. We do not share client information with third parties, use it to train AI systems, or retain it beyond the engagement without your explicit consent. When AI tools are part of our workflow, we are selective about what goes into them. Personally identifiable information, donor records, financial data, and anything your organization considers confidential does not go into AI tools. We work with you at the start of each engagement to agree on what is appropriate to use, and how. At the close of an engagement, we return all deliverables and working files to your organization. Upon request, we will delete any copies of your materials from our systems within 30 days. If you would like written confirmation of deletion, we will provide it. We are a small organization, not a SaaS platform, so we do not have automated data pipelines or retention databases. What you share with us lives in a project folder. You can ask us to close and delete it at any time.
