Who we serve

Experience across the nonprofit world.

Every sector has its own audiences and its own reasons to give, join or show up. Here is the range of organizations we work with. Our approach adapts to any mission.

Public Media

Stations depend on members who give because they value what they watch and hear. We help stations acquire, renew and reactivate members and promote programming and events across mail, email and digital ads.

Selected organizations we’ve worked with include:

AETN, AZPM, ideastream, KERA, KPBS, Milwaukee PBS, New Mexico PBS, PBS North Carolina, PBS Wisconsin, WABE and WOSU.

“The CBA team is responsive and truly great to work with. Their consistency and dedication make all the difference. We couldn’t ask for a better partner.”

Libraries

Libraries and library foundations serve nearly everyone in their communities, so the potential base of support is unusually broad. We help turn patrons into donors, members and annual supporters.

Selected organizations we’ve worked with include:

Brooklyn Public Library, Boston Public Library Fund, Chicago Public Library Foundation, DC Public Library Foundation, Seattle Public Library Foundation and St. Louis Public Library Foundation.

“CBA’s expertise has been transformative for our organization. Their guidance helped us connect with a staggering amount of new donors who believe in our mission and continue to stand with us in making a difference.”

Health & Human Services

Patients, families and neighbors often feel a personal connection to the organizations that cared for them. We help turn that connection into lasting support and show donors the impact of their gifts.

Selected organizations we’ve worked with include:

Montefiore Medical Center, Hospital for Special Surgery, McLean Hospital, Saban Community Clinic (formerly Saban Free Clinic), Ronald McDonald House, Make-A-Wish, Double H Ranch and Cancer Support Community Arizona.

Arts & Culture

Cultural organizations have audiences who already show up for exhibitions and performances. We help turn attendance into membership and giving, and bring new audiences through the door.

Selected organizations we’ve worked with include:

Carnegie Hall, Whitney Museum, Museum of Science Boston, Atlanta Ballet and National Constitution Center.

Parks, Gardens & Conservation

Organizations built around nature and place have visitors who care deeply about a specific landscape. We help turn visits and awareness into membership, advocacy and philanthropic support.

Selected organizations we’ve worked with include:

Filoli, Prospect Park Alliance, The Nature Conservancy, Parks & Trails New York, Forterra and Gorilla Doctors.

“The CBA team has helped us tap into new channels with their innovative Digital Reach 360 program, and has optimized and advanced our content to both reach new audiences and deepen our engagement with our existing supporters.”

Education, Youth & Career Development

Education and youth organizations need to reach participants, families and supporters, often at the same time. We help recruit students and participants and grow the support that keeps programs running.

Selected organizations we’ve worked with include:

Brooklyn College, City Year, Boys & Girls Clubs and Forté Foundation.

Case study: City Year

Community & Social Services

Community organizations reach people on both sides of the mission: those who need services and those who make them possible. We help each audience see why the work matters and act.

Selected organizations we’ve worked with include:

Catholic Charities Brooklyn & Queens, Habitat for Humanity, Entertainment Community Fund (formerly The Actors Fund), SPCA Westchester, Envision and Share Food Program.

Membership & Advocacy Organizations

Membership and advocacy organizations depend on people who share an interest, profession or cause. We help acquire and renew members and turn shared commitment into action.

Selected organizations we’ve worked with include:

USTA, Consumer Reports, Rail Passengers Association (formerly NARP) and Friends of Animals.
