We bring the support.

At SDC Strategies, we partner with nonprofits and social impact organizations to turn passion into impact through strategy, hands-on support, and capacity building.

We provide solutions that support your organization's planning, day-to-day operations, and leadership development needs.

Strategic planning
Operational planning (staffing, fundraising, and internal systems)
Aligning budget to plans
Program design and goal setting
Facilitated meetings
Team retreats

Both. Some organizations need support for a specific project (strategic planning, retreat facilitation). Others benefit from an ongoing partnership to build systems and sustain growth.

Frequently Asked Questions

We work best with mid-sized and growing nonprofits and social impact organizations (foundations, government agencies, and social enterprises) that have active programs, dedicated staff, and a commitment to strengthening their infrastructure.

SDC might be a great fit...

If you are wearing too many hats;

If you have strong programs and community impact, but need operational support behind the scenes;

If you have big ideas and vision, and want a clear, practical plan to turn them into action;

If you’re ready to invest in stronger systems and leadership;

If you want a trusted thought partner in work that can sometimes feel isolating, not just another consultant who hands over a report and walks away.

We’re not here to waste your valuable resources. We're here to strengthen your organization so you can do more good.

If you are ready to explore working together, schedule a time to connect!

During our initial consultation, we’ll discuss your needs and determine if SDC is the right fit. If it’s a match, we’ll provide a clear scope of work outlining next steps.

Many organizations begin with a capacity assessment to identify priority areas for support. If you already have clarity around your needs, we can dive right in!

Funding gaps are stressful.

We do not provide quick-fix fundraising solutions or chase grants to fill immediate shortfalls.

While we’ve helped many organizations secure funding, we cannot guarantee results. No consultant can ethically promise funding.

What we can do is help you assess your situation and develop a thoughtful fundraising strategy that includes diverse revenue sources and realistic planning.

If there are funding opportunities that align with your mission, programs, and readiness, we’re happy to pursue them with you. Strong fundraising takes time, relationship building, and internal capacity.

Grants are most effective when they are part of a broader strategy and supported by clear goals, strong programs, realistic budgets, and the ability to deliver measurable results.

To play, press and hold the enter key. To stop, release the enter key.
