Ginny Bishop Consulting + Mackintosh Academy Boulder: Partners in Sustainability



Background

Since 1977, Mackintosh Academy Boulder has nurtured the keen minds and compassionate hearts of gifted children in a caring community of learners. Their child-centered approach is focused on helping students mature into confident, healthy human beings inspired to contribute to a world that needs them.


Challenge

Confronted by unexpected leadership changes and a vacant Director of Development position, Mackintosh Academy Boulder faced a critical challenge: sustaining fundraising support and nurturing the school community culture. To navigate this pivotal moment and secure the school’s future stability, they turned to Ginny Bishop Consulting to transition from unpredictability to long-term sustainability.



Solution

Our solution encompassed several key initiatives to address the challenges at hand. Firstly, we initiated the school’s first-ever crowdfunding campaign, igniting momentum for the Annual Fund. 

Additionally, we managed the communications related to the leadership transition during the interim phase, fostering trust, continuity, community, and stability. 

Furthermore, we meticulously crafted a comprehensive fundraising plan for the upcoming year, laying out clear strategies for success.

Moreover, we provided extensive coaching and guidance to the new director, equipping her with the tools and knowledge needed to successfully effectively execute the fundraising plan the next year.



“Ginny Bishop brings expertise, structure, creativity, and, most importantly, results.

Not only did we gain results, she provided us with the scaffolding and resources to launch our own campaigns in the future.”
