About Us
Abundance Catalyst is a fundraising consultancy with a focus on building resources for social justice and movement based organizations.
We’re a small team of development professionals with decades of experience at movement organizations and different specializations and skill sets.
Our clients have ambitious plans to create change. Changing the system, who is in power, and tackling big problems. They’ve got the heart and purpose, but often don’t have the time, staff, or infrastructure to raise money.
​
We specialize with supporting movement based organizations to fund their movements. We offer fundraising support contracts, development assessments, classroom-style trainings, and project based support.
Our Core Values
1. Movement Rooted
We come from movement work—and we’re still in it. We serve organizations that build collective power, shift narratives, and advance justice. Our strategies reflect lived experience, not charity mindsets or boardroom theory.
2. Abundance Over Scarcity
We reject the nonprofit starvation cycle. Movements deserve resources that match their vision. We help organizations move from survival mode to sustainability and bold, unapologetic growth.
3. Right- Sized Support
No bloated strategies or one-size-fits-all playbooks. We deliver practical, customized, tech-savvy support that fits your team, your budget, and your moment of growth. And yes—we follow through.
4. Realness
We name the hard stuff. Whether it’s staff capacity, board avoidance, or funding misalignment, we bring truth with care. Real change starts with honest conversation, and we’re not afraid to go there with you.
5. Joyful Rigor
This work is serious—and joyful. We bring sharp strategy, smart systems, and just enough spreadsheets, paired with warmth, humor, and celebration. Because building movements should feel powerful, not punishing.
Giving & Redistribution Policy
At Abundance Catalyst, we believe in redistributing resources to fuel the bold work of movements. Our corporate giving is one way we live our values, especially Movement Rootedness and Abundance Over Scarcity. We view our giving not as charity, but as solidarity.
Annual Commitment
We commit to redistributing at least 1% of our gross revenue each year, and aim for 5% of net income when possible. We give unrestricted capacity-building support for movement organizations, grassroots groups, and frontline leaders and electoral candidates—particularly those led by BIPOC, women, queer, immigrant, and low-income communities.
