OUR CASE STUDIES
Teens of Color Abroad
During 2020-21, Parkes Philanthropy project team implemented a strategic fundraising strategy for a nonprofit organization, Teens of Color (Abroad).
The team established financial pillars in order for their organization to sustainably grow, such as donor pipeline, engagement strategy, and long-term operational planning.
The Jewish Museum
With a Fundraising Director on maternity leave, The Jewish Museum needed additional development support to manage their current portfolio while identifying new opportunities.
Parkes Philanthropy worked with The Jewish Museum to develop a strategic pipeline of opportunities to unlock new funding opportunities for an upcoming exhibit.
The Foundation for FUSD
In 2022, Parkes Philanthropy worked with the third-largest school district in California to develop a strategic plan for the newly created Foundation for Fresno Unified School District’s inaugural initiative: a scholarship program for the district’s nearly 4,000 graduating seniors.
