We’ve helped nonprofits get the attention of major funders like MacKenzie Scott and helped them raise $45m. Here’s how.

LinkedIn is a powerful tool for nonprofit organizations to connect with high-value donors, foundations, and potential supporters.

We have created customized philanthropic targeting and advisory products and services to help nonprofits effectively engage with key stakeholders on LinkedIn and other digital platforms.

Our targeting and list-building provides unparalleled access to more than 1,500 executives, including those from foundations with assets totaling more than $300 billion, as well as celebrity- and corporate-led foundations and blue-chip donor advisory groups.

This is more than just a list; it's a strategic resource that empowers nonprofits to build meaningful, long-term relationships with potential supporters and donors.

If you’re reading this, it’s because our targeting worked. We use the same strategy to target funders on behalf of our clients.
