Kernes Consulting is a practice dedicated to helping nonprofits succeed through strategic marketing and fundraising. I also advise corporate clients in aligning their giving to achieve business objectives. I have 30 years’ experience in nonprofit management, public media, fundraising, and, most recently, corporate social responsibility programs. I am uniquely positioned to advise my clients in approaching corporate grant makers as well as foundations.
I offer the following services for nonprofits:
- How to approach corporate grant makers
- Prospecting foundations and other grant makers
- Effective use of Boards in fundraising
- Developing your marketing tool kit
- Grant writing
- Effective communication
Although my focus is helping nonprofits, I also advise corporate grant makers in developing their giving focus and overall approach to corporate social responsibility.
For corporate clients:
- Setting up and managing your corporate social responsibility program
- Maximizing visibility for your CSR program
Please look around my website to find out what I can do to enhance your marketing, fundraising, and CSR objectives. I look forward to working with you.
