grow your good.

build stronger donor relationships. grow sustainable revenue. expand your impact.

You’re doing good work.
We’re here to help it grow further.

You didn’t start this to chase metrics.
You’re here to serve people, fulfill a calling, and make lasting change.

But let’s be honest: the nonprofit space is evolving fast.
What used to work isn’t working anymore.

You’re under pressure to do more—with fewer resources—and it’s easy to lose sight of what matters most.

That’s where we come in.

Fundraising has changed. Has your strategy?

Acquiring donors is harder. Keeping their attention is harder. And the channels and strategies that worked even a few years ago aren’t delivering the same results today.
But the answer isn’t simply another campaign, another platform, or another agency.

It’s understanding how the entire donor journey works together.

At mission:activate, we help you step back and see the bigger picture (from how donors discover you to what happens after they give) so you can make smarter decisions, strengthen relationships, and build sustainable revenue over time.

Let’s activate what’s possible.

The Donor Cultivation Model™
A Sustainable Growth Ecosystem

Our proprietary, The Donor Cultivation Model™ helps nonprofits move beyond one-off campaigns to create an integrated ecosystem for attracting, engaging, and retaining donors, increasing donor lifetime value, and building more sustainable revenue over time.

We don’t prescribe the same strategy to every organization. We look at your donors, your data, your mission, your resources, and the changing fundraising landscape to determine what makes sense for you.

what our clients say

“There is no one I know who knows the profile of donors, language necessary to move donors, and execution of strategy like Todd and Kristen.”

“I had the pleasure of working with Todd Chatman during my time at Food For The Poor, where he partnered with our team to grow and strengthen our radio fundraising efforts.”

Look no further — you’ve found the dynamic duo you need.

I have known Todd and Kristen Chatman for years and both are compassionate warriors on behalf on nonprofits here and around the world.

Todd Chatman is a hungry go-getter who knows the right people, knows (literally) everything about media, and knows how to fundraise with precision.

A perfect example of that is Kristen Chatman. She is an absolute powerhouse.
