THE FAMILY ROOM
Without question, our beloved non profit would not exist today without the expertise of Erica and her team at Cause Catalyst. They came on board two months before the pandemic and with their characteristic blend of evidence-based strategy (they are unmatched in the quality of their donor relations), mission-centered tenacity, and sheer positivity, they kept our program afloat. Four very challenging years later, both our budget and our services have not just survived but doubled.
