Your Story begins
with Preface
At Preface, I help nonprofits and mission-driven organizations achieve their funding and communication goals. Many design firms can create what you want, but I focus on what you need to succeed—design and messaging that support donor engagement, fundraising, and long-term impact.
What I Offer
I provide hands-on support across marketing, design, and communications, including:
- Marketing and Communication Strategy
- Annual Reports
- Digital Design (Email, Display Ads, Social, CTV)
- Video Editing and Production
- Social Media Management
- Logos and Style Guides
- Direct Mail Campaigns
- Brochures and Flyers
- WordPress Web Design
- Event Promotional Materials
If you can dream it, I can help bring it to life in a way that strengthens your mission and resonates with donors.
Why This Matters
Helping nonprofits increase funding means helping them advance their cause. My work focuses on practical, effective solutions that grow engagement, clarify messaging, and make your fundraising more successful.
Let’s Connect
I would love to hear about your goals for reaching new donors and explore how we can work together.
