I believe in making “here”

better.

Welcome!

My name is Kimberley Sherwood and, for 22 years, I’ve been partnering alongside courageous nonprofits committed to moving from questions to clarity. I have seen the direct impact strategic counsel and thoughtful processes have had on organizations navigating the complexities of collaborative work, diverse boards, ambitious fundraising goals and more.

And I believe the backbone of a thriving community is built on the essential work of social sector organizations. Because when you succeed, we all do.

Let’s get started,

Time-tested insights and wisdom

Imagine trying to gather the collective knowledge and insight of hundreds of nonprofits. While invaluable, the process would be time-consuming and exhausting. This is the benefit of working with us. We provide proven solutions and time-tested wisdom gained from years of hard won successes with organizations just like yours.

Making “here” better, for everyone
