"In addition to being highly professional, fun, and holding themselves accountable for delivering high quality work, the team at Doing Good Digital has been a valuable partner in our efforts to build and scale up digital philanthropy outreach across our growing system of hospitals and clinical centers. The Doing Good Digital team has integrated smoothly into our existing direct response fundraising program, helping our digital strategy become more robust. Thanks to their expertise, during a time when resources are tight, especially in health care, our DGD team has consistently come to the table with a positive and creative approach that has helped us maximize our impact while staying on budget. They have helped us develop more efficient production work streams and provided regular analysis, keeping our decisions strategic and informed by data. We feel fortunate to have them as part of our team!"
"As a development director with little to no professional experience in digital fundraising and marketing, our partnership with Doing Good Digital was just what our food bank needed. After attending Feeding America’s Digital Strategy Institute in 2023, we learned that we didn’t need to know how to do everything ourselves but could partner with an experienced agency. That’s exactly what we found with Doing Good Digital. They provide the expertise and tools we need to enhance our digital acquisition, retention, and engagement programs."
“A true partner. We love working with Doing Good Digital! Their team is not only super skilled in digital marketing but also genuinely passionate about helping us achieve our mission. They've been friendly, creative, and incredibly effective since day one. Thanks to their innovative strategies, our fundraising efforts have soared, and we’re connecting with more people than ever. They understand what nonprofits need and go above and beyond to ensure our success. We can't recommend Doing Good Digital enough—they're simply the best!”
