Services
We customize the work that we do to match what you need. We specialize in increasing the revenue our clients raise through:
We will find the prospects, decide if they are right for you, and build a workplan to walk you step by step through the process of building relationships and accessing new opportunities. For those who are interested, we offer full grantwriting services, including content gathering, drafting, editing, and submissions.
We also provide strategic coaching along the way on all aspects of grantseeking, including how to determine a realistic revenue target, position your organization in applications, troubleshoot low grant success rates, expand in new directions, build tools for measuring grantwriting effectiveness, and ultimately: find ways to increase grant revenue over time.
Cloudbreak partners with clients to build cohesive strategies for donor-facing appeals and reports throughout the year, calendar out activities, and then lead the writing and distribution for each item throughout the year.
We will write compelling and effective donor-facing content for a range of settings including: holiday appeals, sponsorship appeals, annual appeals, online giving events, special one-time solicitations, newsletters, annual reports, and more.
Special
Campaigns
When an organization is entering a pivotal period around a specific, long-term goal–such as building a new facility, creating an endowment, or launching something new–Cloudbreak can support you in determining how to identify and secure the necessary resources to fuel your vision. We come alongside you on the journey from big idea to big finish. Cloudbreak partners with you to strategically build your internal capacity, center community priorities in your campaign vision and plans, activate your Board, staff, and volunteer leaders, and engage your community of supporters.
Whether a “major” donation for your organization is $100 or $10,000, we can help you build systems and skills required to cultivate stronger relationships with those closest to your organization.
We help you identify your current and potential major donors, build the infrastructure needed to increase donations, and gain comfort and familiarity with how to ask for funds.
