Our Approach

Nonprofits face ongoing challenges: securing funding, strategic planning, donor engagement, ensuring sustainability, program development, capacity, and effectively demonstrating their impact.

At Pulse Vision Group, we specialize in delivering holistic consulting solutions for nonprofits and corporate giving. Located in Syracuse NY, and founded by nonprofit leaders, we are dedicated to empowering organizations with tailored strategies and shared resources to effectively tackle their unique challenges.

We specialize in the idea/startup/growth phases of nonprofit lifecycles (employing the NLI framework where appropriate). Additionally, we provide tailored Project Management services, assisting your organization in developing diverse programs, projects, and growth initiatives, while building capacity.

By guiding nonprofits, we connect our success to your achievements. Together, we can build a future that is both sustainable and transformative.
