Join Our Team
Take Root and Grow.
At The Root Agency, our mission is to help philanthropy Take Root and Grow. We believe every nonprofit has the potential to do more good. Realizing that potential takes more than good intentions. It takes strategy, strong relationships, data-informed decisions, effective fundraising systems, and the courage to pursue what is possible.
We partner with mission-driven organizations across the country to strengthen leadership, fundraising, strategy, and operational capacity.
As a member of The Root Agency team, you will work alongside experienced nonprofit consultants, fundraisers, strategists, and creative professionals to help organizations grow their capacity, strengthen fundraising, and create greater impact in their communities.
Meaningful Work. Measurable Impact.
Our vision is to strengthen individuals, organizations, and communities through philanthropy.
Through our 4D Approach - Data, Development, Design, and Delivery - we help nonprofit organizations align their fundraising efforts with their strategic plans and advance their missions.
Our team brings more than a century of collective experience across sectors including faith, human services, education, healthcare, foundations, arts and culture, and animal welfare.
Together with our clients, The Root Agency has helped raise more than $250 million to strengthen communities.
