Fundraising is about more than asking for support. It’s about helping people understand the real need, the real impact, and the real lives behind the mission.
For more than a decade, we partnered with Catholic Charities of Broome County to help share that story across video, social media, annual reports, fundraising materials, and campaign content.
Together, that work supported some incredible outcomes, including $3.6 million raised through special events, annual appeals, and other fundraising, $4.3 million for a capital campaign, and a $1 million bequest from a donor who had never given before.
From a heartfelt capital campaign video to a refreshed Harvest for Hunger campaign, the goal was always the same: make the mission visible, help the community connect, and give people a meaningful reason to take action.
As Lori Accardi shared, “You don’t always know who you’re reaching.” That’s exactly why consistent, thoughtful storytelling matters.
