From Invisible to Impactful: Helping a New Nonprofit Find Its Next-Gen Voice

Client Background and Challenges

Preserving Legacies, But Missing Visibility

"Legacy Preservation Organization*" began with a meaningful mission: to record and preserve the stories and history of American veterans. However, without a clear donor communication strategy, they struggled to get noticed. As a startup nonprofit, they lacked industry know-how and had no strong digital presence or marketing plan in place. Their voice was getting lost, even as their work deserved to be seen.
