The Branding and Creative Agency for Growing Nonprofits
We partner with nonprofits ready to scale, giving you a dedicated creative team to build the brand, website, and campaigns you need to raise more money and grow your impact.
Three Ways to Work Together
We offer three partnership models depending on where your organization is and what you need right now. Book a call and we'll help you figure out which path makes the most sense for your situation.
Option 1: Start with Strategy
Audit & Growth Roadmap starting at $10,000
Get complete clarity on what your organization needs before committing to any major project. We'll immerse ourselves in your organization, audit your brand and digital presence, and deliver a comprehensive 12-month roadmap showing you exactly what to prioritize.
Best for:
Organizations exploring major changes but not sure where to start, or those who want strategic clarity before investing in execution.
You can take the roadmap and implement it with your team or other partners, or you can hire us to execute it with you.
Timeline:
4 weeks from kickoff to delivery
Option 2: Focused Project
Starting at $35k
Tackle a specific priority right now. Whether it's a complete brand refresh, website redesign, or comprehensive campaign, we'll deliver a focused project over 3-4 months with clear deliverables and timeline.
Best for:
Organizations with a clear, specific need and budget ready to execute now.
Timeline:
3-4 months, depending on scope
Option 3: Ongoing Partnership
Starting at $15k/mo
Work with a dedicated creative team that brings deep expertise, pattern recognition across dozens of nonprofits, and fresh outside perspective you can't get from internal staff.
Best for:
Organizations that are scaling quickly and need consistent creative support to keep up with their ambition.
Timeline & Commitment:
All partnerships start with a 3-month pilot to prove we can deliver value. After that, we convert to month-to-month.
Elkhorn Slough Foundation just completed its first-ever capital campaign raising more than $13 million. Cosmic was instrumental in this success.
Work That Moves People
FAQ's
How do organizations work with Cosmic and what does it cost?
We offer three ways to partner based on where you are in your growth journey:
Growth Audit & Roadmap ($10K, 4 weeks) — Strategic diagnostic that identifies exactly where your brand, digital, and marketing can accelerate growth. Most organizations start here.
Focused Projects (Starting at $35K, 2-3 months) — High-impact work like a brand refresh, website redesign, or campaign when you need something specific done right.
Growth Partnership (Starting at $15K/month) — We become your embedded brand, digital, and marketing team for organizations that are scaling quickly and need consistent creative support to keep up with their ambition.
We'll discuss your budget, timeline, and goals during a Discovery Call to recommend the right starting point.
Do you only work with nonprofits?
While we specialize in nonprofits and social impact organizations, we work with any mission-driven organization creating positive change. This includes social enterprises, B Corps, foundations, advocacy groups, and purpose-driven companies. If you're working to make the world better and you're in a growth stage ($2M-$10M+ revenue), we want to hear from you.
How do you manage priorities in an ongoing partnership?
Your roadmap guides everything. We plan work quarterly based on what matters most right now. If priorities shift, we adjust during our quarterly planning sessions. You'll always know what we're working on and why.
What if we're not sure whether we need brand, digital, or marketing help?
That's exactly why we created the Growth Audit & Roadmap. Most organizations know something isn't working but can't diagnose whether it's brand positioning, digital infrastructure, content strategy, or all three. The Roadmap analyzes where to invest for maximum growth impact and gives you a clear strategic plan — whether you implement it with us or in-house.
What kind of results have you achieved for organizations like ours?
Over 15 years, we've partnered with 100+ social impact organizations at critical growth stages. Our clients have secured major funding rounds, scaled from local to national impact, and built the communications infrastructure to sustain long-term growth. We've helped organizations increase online donations, launch successful capital campaigns, and position themselves for their next stage of growth. During your Discovery Call, we'll share relevant case studies that match your specific situation and goals.
What to expect:
- We'll learn about your organization and recommend the right path forward
- If it's a fit, we'll outline next steps
- If not, we'll recommend other partners who might be a better match
- Just an honest conversation about what you need.
