our work

long-term partnerships with mission-driven organizations.

Our work is not a project portfolio. It is a record of institutional partnerships with organizations we stay with as they evolve, helping them strengthen their operations, knowledge, and digital infrastructure over time.

Featured partnerships

St. Cyril Cancer Foundation

Building an institution across borders.

Organization
Patient-support nonprofit
Sector
Healthcare
Partner since
Strategic partner since 2013

A long partnership supporting the foundation's evolution from its founding in Nigeria through the development of its operational and digital foundations, and now its expansion into the United States.

Challenge

As the foundation grew, day-to-day work depended on a few people holding the organization together informally. Preparing for cross-border operations required clearer governance, stronger internal coordination, and a public presence that could carry the mission with dignity.

Our Approach

We designed the operational structure around how the team actually works: clearer roles, shared ways of recording and reviewing the work, and communications and digital systems that support the foundation on both sides of its expansion.

Outcome

A foundation able to collaborate, govern, and grow with confidence across two countries, with institutional infrastructure that supports expansion rather than constraining it.

RANMED Consult

Repositioning an organization for independent growth.

Organization
Specialist oncology consultancy
Sector
Healthcare
Partner since
Strategic partner since 2012

More than a decade of organizational development alongside a specialist oncology consultancy, spanning communications strategy, institutional reporting, operational planning, and the creation of a sustainable professional education model.

Challenge

A respected clinical practice needed institutional visibility, clearer communications, and an operational foundation that could carry the organization through successive phases of growth without overwhelming a small team.

Our Approach

We worked with the founder over many years to define how the practice presents itself, how it coordinates internally, and how its knowledge is organized. Each phase built on the last: communications, reporting, planning, and an education model the practice can run on its own.

Outcome

A stronger institutional presence, more reliable internal coordination, and a professional education model that gives the practice a durable, independent path forward.

HELWA Foundation

Formalizing a trusted community into a lasting institution.

Organization
Women's health organization
Sector
Culture
Partner since
Partnership began 2025

Supporting the transition of an established women's health community into a structured organization through governance, communications, digital infrastructure, and organizational planning.

Challenge

The founding team had already built trust with its community. What it needed was the institutional shape to hold that trust over time: a coherent identity, governance, and the means to engage its community from day one.

Our Approach

We worked alongside the founders to establish a brand and editorial system, set up communications and collaboration practices, and shape early governance and community channels sized to the organization.

Outcome

A women's health organization positioned to formalize its community into a lasting institution, with the foundations in place to grow sustainably.

Nigerians in New York

Creating operational clarity for a growing community organization.

Organization
Diaspora community organization
Sector
Culture
Partner since
Partnership began 2026

Strengthening operational systems, reporting, digital tools, and organizational coordination to support continued growth of a diaspora community organization in New York.

Challenge

A fast-growing community organization was outpacing the informal systems that carried it through its early years. Coordination, reporting, and digital tools needed to catch up with the scale of the work.

Our Approach

We are working with the team to bring clarity to how the organization operates day to day: shared reporting practices, digital tools sized to the work, and coordination habits the team can sustain as it grows.

Outcome

A community organization with the operational clarity to keep pace with its own momentum, and infrastructure that supports continued community growth.
