Pachira Strategies
Cultivating sustainable growth
What We Do
Pachira Strategies is a boutique fundraising consultancy empowering organizations to achieve their philanthropic goals through tailored fundraising strategies. Like the eponymous pachira (money tree), we weave together the keys to success to ensure our clients have infrastructure deeply rooted in best practices needed for sustainable revenue.
Whether it’s a focus on creating annual fundraising strategies and metrics, increasing major gifts, training your Board on making the ask, providing fractional or interim leadership, or conducting a capital campaign feasibility study, we will help you establish the foundation for future growth. Unless it’s an event. We don’t do events.
We look forward to discussing your needs and how we can help.
