Through intentional listening and co-creation, Ignite Philanthropy supports the philanthropic and non-profit sectors.
Transformative growth requires precise strategy and planning. We want to help our non-profit partners get there – and beyond. Ignite helps non-profits execute strategies that secure the necessary resources for major projects, from building new facilities to launching impactful programs.
We collaborate with foundations on their community investment strategy, enabling them to maximize the impact of each donated dollar. We also relieve foundation leaders from daily management tasks, allowing them to focus on their mission while we handle the intricacies of running successful grantmaking programs and managing non-profit relationships.
We partner with civic and community leaders to bring their visions to reality. Over the years, we’re proud to have worked alongside some of the most innovative changemakers in our communities – powering emerging projects that will impact generations to come.
Our four core principles have been developed by our team with intentionality around equity and community and how these connect to each principle and the work we do each day. We believe in the value of diverse teams and perspectives, striving to empower every voice in the creation of solutions.
Our work is rooted in our ability to develop solutions to help our clients achieve their philanthropic goals. We take the lead in co-creating the path to our clients’ success.
Building the right strategy requires us to remain humble so we may continually learn and adapt. We embrace listening, questioning, and experimentation as the foundation to our adaptive mindset.
No single individual has the knowledge and experience to successfully navigate all aspects of our work. We thrive by taking a team approach, ensuring that we bring diverse tools and talent to successfully tackle our clients’ complex challenges.
Through the generosity of our clients, we are able to serve our community. We take this responsibility seriously, personifying the spirit of the sector we serve.
