When I graduated high school, a dear family friend gave me a card that read in part “Shine on KC! (Something to remind you.)” That something to remind me was the necklace that I’m pictured wearing on the site’s homepage. In the years to come, “shine on” has become more than a reminder, but a motto I aspire to live by.
In addition to serving as a personal vision statement, this phrase embodies my aspirations for the nonprofit clients I service through this consultancy.
It’s no secret that many nonprofit organizations lack the professional staff, resources, and tools needed to craft and implement strategic communication campaigns. Most PR departments in the nonprofit sector are understaffed and underfunded in comparison to the corporate communication and the public affairs departments that respective private and public sectors boast.
This deficit inhibits social impact organizations from achieving their missions to the fullest and most vibrant extent. Without strategic communications, nonprofit organizations cannot fully communicate why they exist, what they stand for, and how stakeholders may take meaningful action to enact substantive change.
That’s where Chiffer Consulting comes in.
Chiffer Consulting empowers nonprofit organizations to shine on through PR, event planning, and reputation management. Chiffer Consulting prides itself on its capacity to not only implement sustainable change, but also educate and explain the “how” and the “why” of every action it takes to clients. In doing so, Chiffer Consulting aims to bridge the gap in PR knowledge within the nonprofit sector.
I look forward to collaborating with you to ignite transformation in your nonprofit organization.
Shine On,
Katie Chiffer
