Ignite Philanthropy serves all aspects of the philanthropic and non-profit sector—from individuals, companies and foundations seeking to organize and improve their philanthropic giving to non-profits looking for an experienced fundraising or strategy partner to raise capital to accomplish their mission. Though we typically combine our unique set of services into a custom solution for our clients, we have a set of core services organized into three categories.
Data Services
Donor Data
Analytics
Ignite Philanthropy improves fundraising effectiveness by helping non-profits unlock insights from their donor database and turn these insights into actionable revenue growth strategies. Ignite also has proprietary analytics tools that mine non-profit sector and consumer behavioral data to identify new donor prospects and opportunities for expanding existing donor relationships. Ignite has extensive experience working with a wide range of industry databases and systems and works closely with our clients to extract, clean and verify the data being analyzed.
Database Hygiene
and Management
Ignite Philanthropy offers a full range of data management services that help non-profits and foundations update, maintain, and improve the quality of contacts, constituent records and transactions. Ignite helps non-profits and foundations consistently maintain the accuracy of their data so that they can make strategic data-informed decisions and continue to communicate effectively with their stakeholders, grantees, constituents and supporters.
Custom Sector
Data Analysis
Ignite Philanthropy aggregates and analyzes client and sector data to create actionable insights. Ignite has experience working with non-profits, foundations and civic organizations to create and perform sector data-inform research and impact analytics projects. We provide project management and leadership resources to funder-collaborative, governments and organizations to ensure their complex community data, impact and research projects are effectively executed.
Non-Profit Services
Fundraising Strategy
and Planning
Ignite Philanthropy combines a proprietary planning methodology with deep fundraising and non-profit sector experience to guide organizations through a comprehensive planning and stakeholder engagement process. Our team of strategists, data specialists and fundraisers have experience designing strategies for projects ranging from $200+ million capital campaigns to grass roots fundraisers and annual funds.
Fundraising Campaign
Management
Ignite Philanthropy believes that successful fundraising campaigns must have a solid plan, top notch leadership and a dedicated fundraising team to execute day-to-day operations. Our custom suite of campaign management services is led and managed by full-time employees of Ignite Philanthropy (not outsourced consultants) who have deep local donor and community knowledge. We serve as the outsourced leadership team, working with volunteer and organization executives to fulfill their vision and goals for the campaign.
Strategic
Consulting
Ignite Philanthropy combines its unique knowledge of the non-profit sector with business acumen and non-profit management experience to assess, research and design strategies for non-profit organizations and philanthropists.
