Why mission-driven teams call back

"After a couple years of developing our project, we brought Lesley on for structural and organizational support. She quickly understood our needs, identified key gaps, and provided a clear path forward. She is hands-on, highly skilled, and connects us with the right people when needed. She's helping us build the solid foundation we need to grow."

Let’s work together

Choose the level of support that suits your mission.

Grant support

Per application (timeline varies)

What it is: Full-cycle support for funding: identifying aligned opportunities, developing the proposal, shaping the narrative, and supporting submission and follow-up.

Best for: Lean teams facing a critical funding opportunity who need both strategy and execution support.

Strategic engagement

4–12 weeks (project-based)

What it is: Design and delivery of high-impact strategic priorities—whether that’s a multi-year plan, a revenue strategy, or a board alignment session.

Best for: Mission-driven teams who need a clear path forward and the right support to make it stick.

Ongoing advisory

Monthly (minimum 3 months)

What it is: Retained strategic and operational support—covering planning, funding, internal alignment, and delivery.
