The Art of Fundraising. The Science of Results.

Non-profit fundraising is a different business. One that demands different thinking. Direct thinking.

At BKV, we understand the marketing principles that are unique to non-profit. We know how to tug at people's heartstrings — be it by mail, DRTV, print ad or e-mail. From there, it's all about cultivation. Bringing those leads along the fundraising pyramid to middle donors, major donors ... and eventually planned givers.

Learn more about who we are.

Stop. Look. Listen.

You're unique. So the last thing you want is an agency to come in and offer the same old solution they offer to every non-profit. And you don't want to fork over your file so an agency can diagnose it with some top-secret software program only they can understand.

You want an agency who isn't all talk. One who values the lost art of listening.

Learn more about what we do.

Great Clients. Great Work.

We think our work is only as good as the results it generates. And at BKV Non-Profit, we get the job done — time after time. How? We think directly. And we analyze relentlessly. That's what allows us to increase response and generate more revenue — all at a lower cost per dollar raised.

Because, beyond everything else, we consider it a privilege to be the stewards of your donors' hard-earned and generously sacrificed money. That's why it's crucial to make your program effective.
