ABOUT US

Formed in 2016, Clarity brings together two nonprofit professionals with long and complementary histories as nonprofit CEOs and consultants. We come from diverse backgrounds bringing broad expertise, experience and knowledge to this work. Collectively, we have been executive directors, interim directors, fundraisers, collaborators, coaches, consultants and facilitators for nonprofit, philanthropic, and for-profit organizations for decades. We believe people are the most crucial part of delivering missions.
