Transform the conversation, Build communities, Raise dollars

Welcome to Scenario

Fundraising and non-profit communications used to be simpler and more straightforward—but less predictable. Minus advanced technology and with fewer media channels, we wrote, designed, printed, and mailed—and hoped for the best. With all the new options available, we now have the ability to assess how and whether our campaigns are working and adjust our communications strategy, messaging, and media selection accordingly—to reach our audiences where they live…

Think that creating effective campaigns requires big-business budgets?
Not so.

Together, we can transform the conversation, change behavior, advance policy, raise dollars, and build communities—without spending beyond our means.
