You're building something bigger than anyone realizes.
If you're like most nonprofits, you're doing work that’s bigger than the way it gets talked about.
​You have program descriptions, outcomes, and success stories.
But these only show people pieces of your work.
What they can’t see is the purpose, the direction, or the vision underneath.
They can’t see how an investment in your organization helps them achieve their goals.
​
I help you show people how your work fits together and why backing your future matters.
Without needing another capital campaign, gala, rebrand, or paid marketing push.
​
You’ll move from being the “best kept secret” to being fully backed.
What it means to be fully backed.
Fully backed organizations are not just fully funded. (That's a wonderful by-product, though!) They're organizations that have earned the belief that helps supporters feel all-in on the organization's future.
→ Funders see your vision and want to be part of it.
​
→ Your board becomes advocates, not gatekeepers.
→ Your team shares the story with confidence.
→ Your reputation grows because people finally understand your work and what you’re building.
It’s a mix of trust, advocacy, investment, and visibility. It’s what turns potential supporters into fierce champions.

Hi, I’m Angela Marino.
And I help nonprofit leaders earn transformation-level support.
​
I spent close to two decades inside a nonprofit organization, leading communications, fundraising, and growth efforts during high-stakes, high-change moments.
I’ve worked at the intersection of leadership, boards, and funders, and I’ve seen how quickly confidence can build or fall apart based on how clearly the future is understood.
​
Today, I work with nonprofit CEOs whose organizations are doing meaningful work, but are still being supported in ways that keep the present functional, rather than build toward a bigger future.
​
Most teams can describe programs. Many can report results. But transformation-level support asks for something different. It asks for a clear, credible vision and a way of talking about the work that invites partnership instead of charity.
​
The work we do centers on defining that future, shaping an investment-ready organizational narrative, and preparing leaders to bring it into conversations with confidence.
Asking more often or asking "better" won't build a fully backed organization.
​
That only happens when people can finally see, believe in, and want to be part of what you're building.
​​
Leading a nonprofit’s growth today requires more than fundraising tactics.
​
It requires a narrative foundation that brings your team together, strengthens your board, and gives funders a reason to believe in where you’re going.
​
When people understand the whole story, they become your partners. They speak your language. They back you.
This is the kind of organization you’re building.
