Strategic Advising

I provide strategic advising to donors of color and philanthropic organizations investing in the U.S. South.

When I’m in my role as a leadership coach, I create a container for you to tap into your own wisdom to know which steps to take.  When I’m advising, I’m sharing my thoughts and expertise to strengthen the strategies of individuals and organizations.

Who I serve and how I work:

Philanthropy

  • Advising donors of color returning their families and/or resources to the South.
  • Joint coaching between the foundation CEO/ED and the donor or board chair
  • Advising small family and private foundations working to align their grantmaking to their equity and/or justice frameworks (especially racial, gender, and economic)
  • Advising foundations and funder collaboratives seeking to partner more deeply with their Southern BIPOC-led nonprofits
  • Advising intermediaries on their funder engagement strategy

Corporations

  • Strategic visioning with ERG/CSR teams seeking to engage more deeply with local communities of color
  • Affinity group facilitation for Black women and other women of color

Please note: I do not provide DEI training and assessments, strategic planning, or fundraising plans. Any organization I partner with must have established a clear equity framework that is being actively implemented. I do not look for perfection but will ask about progress.

Reasons you should hire me to be your advisor:

  • I am trustworthy
  • I can see the forest and the trees
  • I have 15+ years of experience supervising women of color
  • I have 25+ years working with nonprofits
  • I have 10+ years working with philanthropy

How much do you charge?
