GLOSS & COMPANY
 
As an international fundraising, management, and marketing consulting firm based in Colorado and Arizona. What sets us apart from other consulting firms is we get directly involved in the active research, cultivation, and solicitation of donations, major gifts, grants, multi-year pledges, and planned gifts for our clients. Other firms just tell you what to do and how to do it, but they don't actually participate in the solicitation process. We do!
 
Gloss & Company offers a full spectrum of professional services and ideas to help large and small nonprofits, foundations, associations, businesses, governmental agencies, civic and service groups to reach their goals and objectives in a timely and cost-effective manner. These services include strategic and philanthropic planning, powering up revenue generation by conducting annual, major gift, capital campaigns, endowment campaigns, establishing planned giving programs, conducting feasibility studies, and helping to recruit and train development staff and boards (see Professional Services). 
 

Gloss & Company has worked with over 146 nonprofit organizations, foundations, associations, businesses, governmental agencies, communities, civic and service groups. Our senior consultants have raised over $1,019,500,000 for various charities throughout the country and world. Three members of our firm have been long-time members of Rotary International the largest voluntary service organization in the world with over 1,200,000 members in 34,000 Clubs in over 200 countries.

We will often cross-pollinate ideas among clients and act as a conduit for new solutions to overcoming fiscal adversity and changing environments. But the solutions are focused on reality – not graphs, charts or models. We have the adaptive creativity necessary to successfully help your charity, foundation, association, business or institution to plan and implement strategic fundraising, marketing, and management activities.

 

We create and implement effective, multi-dimensional development strategies and craft successful grants targeted at a broad range of public and private funding sources. We maintain positive relationships with broad and diverse audiences including funders, stakeholders, constituents, and the public-at-large. In a real sense, we help plan for extraordinary growth and transformation of programs and services of our clients.

 

The greatest compliment we can receive is a referral. We would appreciate yours!

 

WHY PHILANTHROPIC CONSULTANTS?

 

The origin of the word "philanthropy" in Greek means "love for mankind." Today, it includes the concept of voluntary giving by an individual, business, group, or foundation to promote the common good.

 

That is why we refer to ourselves as "Philanthropic Consultants" because we devote our time and energy to helping a variety of charities, foundations, businesses, associations, governmental agencies, civic, and services groups to alleviate suffering, disease, poverty, hunger, unemployment and homelessness. In a very real sense, philanthropy has the power to transform lives, programs, institutions, and communities around the world.

 

That is why we strive to improve the quality of life of all people, encourage volunteerism, education, and foster the preservation and enhancement of our values, culture, heritage, and environment.

 

As "Philanthropic Consultants," we promote the donation of time, talents, marketing, in-kind donations, and money for worthwhile humanitarian and charitable causes around the world. 

 

We are here to help you achieve your goals and objectives!  

Estamos aquí ayudarle a alcanzar sus metas y objetivos.
