Further Your Nonprofit's Mission and Increase Your Impact With Corporate Partnerships

With our proven strategic approach and focused training your non-profit will raise more money.

Welcome to BridgeRaise –
Your Corporate Partnership Experts

Under the leadership of Heather Nelson, we provide non-profits with the strategy, support, training and tools they need to start, improve upon or expand their corporate fundraising programs.

We specialize in helping established organizations reach the next level of corporate fundraising success through strategic direction and/or implementation strategy & support and also build from-scratch programs for non-profits that are new to corporate fundraising

Our approach is relationship-based and uniquely focused on establishing and nurturing mutually beneficial partnerships for the long-term. We’ve helped charities of all types and sizes raise (lots of!) money through win-win corporate partnerships – and would love to do the same for you so that you can further your mission and increase your impact.
