Cause Effective is committed to listening closely to understand the unique assets and challenges of the nonprofits that seek our help. We want to hear from you what you hope your organization can achieve; then, together, we'll develop a gameplan to get you there.
Cause Effective clients see our fee as an investment in sustainable growth. There are two main ways that clients pay for our work:
Self-pay
Some clients use funds from their operating budget to cover the cost of our services. Others raise the funds through their network of donors, including board members, to finance the cost. Some, after careful consideration, invest funds from their reserve toward the future payoff of increased revenue that results from their work with Cause Effective.
Third-party funding
Many Cause Effective clients receive support for their work with Cause Effective from one of their funders who is committed to seeing them succeed. Support can come from a foundation, federation or membership association, or an individual donor that cares about your organization and understands how investing in your organization’s work with Cause Effective can build your ability to be self-sustaining for years to come.
