Let's make a plan!
In a perfect world, what would your nonprofit look like? Chances are, if you started over tomorrow, it may not look like it does today. What if you are the leader that moves your organization from the status quo to the ideal?
You can’t have all the answers. No one can. There are so many caveats and contingencies. So many issues that need your attention, yesterday.
And, honestly, we may not have all the answers either. (We are still learning, too.) But at Leaf Spring we have developed some tried-and-true ideas, best practices, and excellent tools that many of our clients find helpful and even, if we do say so ourselves, “transformational.”
We’ll walk with you from the 30K-foot overview down into the weeds. We’ll make a plan—a real plan that you can actually implement. Before you know it, that ideal you were dreaming about will be here.
You’ll even have time to finally get to that backburner project, or that strategic plan, or that-one-project-you-know-you-should-do-but-haven’t. Promise.
CONSULTING SERVICES
- event evaluation
Has your nonprofit been running the same fundraiser or event the same way forever? Is it time for a proverbial shot in the arm? Leaf Spring can help analyze and explore new ways for your event to be more current, to grow, and to raise more money.
- Strategic planning
Only you know what your nonprofit can do in the next few years, but Leaf Spring can facilitate a strategic planning session that will help you create a three- to five-year blueprint that you will actually use. Who needs a plan that just sits on the shelf gathering dust? Our online courses help you and your staff prepare for the process. Then, we walk you through the steps so that your plan is readable, usable, and implementable.

Are you ready to figure out new ways to expand your donor base? Are you ready to rethink how you reach and appreciate your supporters? Leaf Spring can help with that.
SMALLER PROJECTS

- cash control overview
Do you have the proper cash controls in place to prevent fraud? Leaf Spring can look at your systems and recommend fast fixes that make it much more difficult for unscrupulous people to steal from your nonprofit.
