What Our Clients Say

“Empreinte has been an invaluable partner to the Joseph Avenue Arts and Culture Alliance. Marc, Pam, and the team took the time to truly listen to our needs and helped us shape clear, compelling messaging coupled with a concerted strategy that both reflects our vision and helps us reach our goals. With their guidance, we developed a pragmatic approach that not only elevated our fundraising efforts but also empowered us to think comprehensively about our objectives. Empreinte is a trusted ally in our growth, and their expertise has brought our development efforts to the next level.”

David PacificFormer Executive Director–Joseph Avenue Arts and Culture Alliance

“When planning for the largest capital campaign in our organization’s history, we vetted several campaign consultants. Right from the initial outreach, it became clear that Empreinte Consulting had the expertise and breadth of experience we were looking for. We found that working with Empreinte was like having two or three additional people on staff. From leadership and strategy to data analytics and administrative support, Empreinte consulting has filled every need within the agreed upon contractual price. We definitely made the right decision in going with them and I truly believe we would not have been as successful in this venture without their guidance.”

Cathie WrightVice President of Donor Relations–Lollypop Farm

“Empreinte Consulting has provided Hochstein with a broad range of resources to support our fundraising efforts, from strategic planning for capital fundraising to hands-on assistance with grant-writing, annual appeal, and event planning. The capacity within their team to change course quickly when our organization needed expertise in other areas has been incredibly valuable, and Empreinte has offered sensitive, thoughtful, above-and-beyond service all along the way.”

Dr. Margaret (Peggy) QuackenbushFormer President and Executive Director–The Hochstein School

“Episcopal SeniorLife Communities is pleased to be partnering with Empreinte in developing and implementing a comprehensive fundraising program. As our relationship has evolved, we have found their services and community knowledge to be incredibly valuable. Their expertise and strategic direction have brought tangible results which speaks to the strength of our working relationship.”

Loren RanalettaPresident, ECH Foundation–Episcopal SeniorLife Communities

“Marc and his team at Empreinte Consulting have been great to work with. They are knowledgeable about the development process and have worked with us every step of the way to offer support and options for services without sales pressure. Empreinte has helped us create a high–quality campaign that has exceeded our expectations and we intend to continue working with them on future projects. I have the utmost confidence that we selected the right team to help us achieve our fundraising goals.”

Mike HoskinsParamedic, BS, MPO, and Former Chief–Perinton Ambulance

“I must say that I have read many outside evaluations of different entities and business processes over the many decades of professional service prepared by both E&Y as well as other types of outside consultants prepared for NFP entities, commercial/healthcare and insurance businesses (publicly and privately owned) and governmental entities and I can’t remember a seemingly more complete analysis with well-constructed, clear and concise recommendations to address the findings. Kudos to you and your team on such complete work over a short period of time.”

Robert LinnFormer Board Chair–Hillside Children’s Foundation

“I was new to the development side of the business and had no experience working with donors or the Raiser’s Edge system. I was told [Lauren] would be an excellent resource for any questions I might have, but I quickly came to realize what an understatement that was. Within a few months my role changed, my responsibilities increased, and my internal resources were gone. I relied on Lauren heavily as I was trying to find my footing. She walked and talked me through all the processes with patience, kindness, and grace. She helped me navigate Raiser’s Edge and taught me what I needed to do my job effectively. She is a database expert and very willing to impart her extensive knowledge. I can’t thank her enough for what she has done to enable me to excel at my job.”

Marcia SchweickhardDevelopment Support–Louis S. Wolk Jewish Community Center

“Our relationship with Empreinte Consulting began with the Collier Community Foundation’s vision and commitment to bring our community together to address the affordable housing crisis. Empreinte provides a comprehensive strategic advisory service, and their community knowledge continues to be of significant value. Empreinte’s expertise and strategic direction have helped to facilitate the formation of The Housing Alliance. The formation was a strategic affiliation of two existing entities that Empreinte facilitated so that they could maximize their missions under the same roof. The formation serves as the hub in Collier County [Florida] to bring together aspiring homeowners, renters, property developers, local government, funders, donors and the community-at-large. We would not be where we are today without Empreinte’s expertise and partnership.”

Eileen Connolly-KeeslerCEO–Collier Community Foundation

“In 2023, Shea’s Performing Arts Center was fortunate to be granted a substantial award from the New York State Council of the Arts (NYSCA) to help create greater accessibility for our patrons, a success largely facilitated by the expertise and dedication of Empreinte Consulting, particularly through the grant writing services of Amy M. D’Amico. Right from the start, Empreinte’s team demonstrated an impressive grasp of the arts funding landscape in New York State. Their strategic guidance proved invaluable in navigating the complexities of the grant application process. [Amy’s] insights and meticulous attention to detail ensured that our funding application was not only thorough, but also compelling. Thanks to Empreinte Consulting, we are now better equipped to embark on the Shea’s Centennial Campaign Project, which promises to benefit our community for years to come. I wholeheartedly recommend Empreinte Consulting to any organization seeking expert guidance in managing and securing grant funding.”

John SchallerVice President of Development–Shea’s Performing Arts Center

“From our first meeting, the team at Empreinte listened, understood our organization’s goals, and helped create a step-by-step plan as we began our nonprofit journey together. Empreinte connected us with other like-minded organizations and refined our message to share with local philanthropists. Acting as an extension of our team, Empreinte helped us achieve several fundraising goals with an approach that valued creating long-term relationships with those supporting our organization. Marc and Pam Ayers are genuine, understanding, problem solvers who care about the people they work with.”

Don Mills IIIExecutive Director–Livwell Community, Wellness, & Fitness Center

“Olean Business Development Corporation’s connection […] with Empreinte Consulting has been invaluable to helping our very small nonprofit entrepreneurial service provider business set strategies for fundraising using modern, simple methodologies and tools. Our regular discussions, working directly with Marc Misiurewicz and Pam Ayers, has enabled a structured approach to help unlock grant opportunities for our short-term needs, with a focus on long-term sustainability. They are great to work with and add some fun to what can be a daunting task for many nonprofit leaders like me…fundraising!”

Bob FornessPresident and Executive Director–Olean Business Development Corporation

“Lauren’s database management and analytics expertise not only supported us through staff transitions; she set us up for great success when we were able to bring staff on. Lauren is a problem-solver and results-oriented. There is no issue she isn’t willing to address through conversation, research and trial-and-error! However, by far, the best way to describe Lauren is as a highly contributing and kind collaborator. She builds relationships—never condescending with her knowledge, always friendly and ready to challenge herself and her clients for the best possible outcomes. I learned from her, but also thoroughly enjoyed working with her! She will be my first call with any future needs.”
