Quotes:
“I don’t think every organization in the world must be a purpose driven or social impact organization, but we are trying to attract and work with organizations where that is their origin story.”
“We get to help our clients do a better job of telling their story to their audience using digital tools and building a brand that is an impact multiplier for their work.”
“When an organization in a space understands the value of this social impact work and gives it a proper seat at the table at a strategic level and integrates it into their overall business strategy, that’s when it works.”
