Mal Warwick Associates, founded in 1979, is one of the country's premier fundraising consultancies for nonprofit organizations. They help nonprofits and political organizations build long-term, mutually rewarding relationships with individual donors through integrated fundraising and marketing programs. Their focus areas include direct mail and telephone fundraising, legacy marketing, online communications, and major gift programs.
For more than a decade, Mal Warwick Associates has been at the forefront of the movement for socially responsible business. We have long sought a mechanism through which our aspirations for change in the world of business could be focused, refined, branded, and popularized. We believe the approach pioneered by B Lab shows great promise of becoming that mechanism.
They believe that society, acting collectively through representative government, bears the greatest responsibility to achieve this vision. Yet they also believe this vision will be fulfilled only with a vibrant nonprofit sector that possesses adequate resources, global reach, and a commitment to work with one another toward common ends.
The Change We Seek®
From its inception, Mal Warwick Associates has sought to build the foundation for a better world by helping its clients recruit, educate, and build enduring relationships with millions of donors who share their commitment to positive social change.
• We are careful to select as clients only those organizations that, in our opinion, make a significant contribution to making the world a better place. The work we do for our clients is far and away the most significant contribution we make to our country and our community.
• Since 1979, we have raised more than $500 million to fund organizations dedicated to human rights, the environment, civil liberties, development in the Global South, and the arts, education, and healthcare. Hundreds of nonprofit organizations, institutions, and causes have benefited from our work, as have dozens of progressive political candidates and committees.
• We share 10 to 25% of our pre-tax profits with employees. Each full-time employee receives the same profit share, regardless of salary. On top of this, we also donate 10% of our pre-tax profits to charity, half in cash and half in volunteer time.
