Raise more. Keep more donors.
Win more grants.
Without hiring.
TNA is an operations partner for mid-size nonprofits. We run the systems behind donor retention, grant writing, and stewardship — so your team can get back to the mission.
Mid-size nonprofits don't fail at mission. They leak revenue.
Four operational gaps quietly drain money and morale from every growing nonprofit. You already know which ones are yours.
Donors give once and you never hear from them again.
Most mid-size nonprofits keep fewer than 1 in 5 first-time donors. Every one you lose is money you already spent to acquire, walking quietly out the door.
The grants you skip are the grants your competitors win.
Every grant is a blank page and a tight deadline. Good opportunities get passed because your team doesn't have three weekends to draft a fifty-page narrative. That's revenue on the table.
You're invisible to your own supporters.
Newsletters, social posts, impact stories, appeals. You know you should be sending more. You're not, because nobody has time. Donors forget you between asks.
Your team is drowning in research that never gets done.
Funder research, prospect briefings, grant scanning, sector intel. It takes hours every week your team doesn't have. So decisions get made on stale information, or not at all.
If this sounds like your week — keep reading.
Four services. One flat monthly fee.
Our team does the work.
You get the outcomes. We own the execution. Your staff stops firefighting and starts focusing on what you hired them to do.
Donor retention lift.
We run personalized stewardship sequences so every donor hears from you at the right moment, in your voice. Retention climbs steadily across renewal cycles.
Grant pipeline built.
We research, qualify, draft, and submit. Our team owns the grant calendar so your Executive Director stops being the bottleneck on every proposal.
Engagement that gets read.
Monthly content, newsletters, and campaign follow-up written by our team in your voice, reviewed by a human before anything goes out.
Research done before Monday.
Prospect research, funder briefings, and board-ready intelligence delivered on your schedule — not squeezed between program crises.
A proven four-phase engagement, built for mid-size nonprofits.
We bring federal contracting discipline to nonprofit operations. Clear milestones. Measurable results. Honest reporting.
Diagnose

Week 1Design
We build the operating playbook: segments, cadences, grant calendar, research briefs. Your team approves before anything runs.
Weeks 2–3Deploy
Our operators execute, supported by AI systems we've built and tuned for your organization. A human reviews every output.
Weeks 4–8Optimize
Weekly reporting, monthly strategic review, quarterly board-ready summary. Measurable outcomes — or we fix it.
OngoingWe use AI to work faster, not to replace judgment. Every donor message, every grant narrative, every research brief is reviewed by a person on our team before it reaches your stakeholders. Your data never trains public models. See how we use AI responsibly →
The right nonprofit. The wrong one. We'll be honest about both.
This is built for you if...
- You run a mid-size nonprofit with a $1M–$10M annual budget.
- You're in healthcare-adjacent services, FQHCs, behavioral health, hospital foundations, or veterans services.
- Your ED is doing the work of three people and can't keep that up.
- You've considered hiring a Development Director but can't justify $120K plus benefits.
- You want a partner who brings rigor, not just ideas.
This is not for you if...
- Your budget is under $1M. You need a free resource first, not a retainer.
- You're an enterprise nonprofit over $25M with a full in-house operations team.
- You want commission-based fundraising. We don't do that, and neither should anyone.
- You expect AI to replace your staff. We believe people do the mission. AI supports them.
Answers before you ask.
Mid-size nonprofits with $1M–$10M annual budgets. We're especially effective with healthcare-adjacent nonprofits, FQHCs, behavioral health providers, veterans services, and hospital foundations. If your annual budget is under $1M or over $25M, we're probably not the right fit, and we'll tell you on the first call.
Our engagements are flat monthly retainers, typically $4,500 to $12,000 per month depending on scope. We never take commissions on money raised. Final pricing comes after the strategy call, when we understand your goals.
Traditional consultants give you a plan and leave. We give you a plan and execute it. We bring federal contracting discipline to nonprofit operations, use AI systems to work faster, and charge flat fees aligned with the AFP Code of Ethical Standards. You pay for outcomes, not hours.
Yes. Your donor data lives in systems you own, under your access controls. We use enterprise AI tools with strict data policies, never pass donor PII into public models, and review every AI-generated output with a human before it reaches a donor. Read our Responsible AI page for full details.
Measurable impact in 90 days — or we'll tell you honestly where we came up short. Our phase 1 diagnostic runs in week one. Systems go live by week four. First reported results by month three.
Great. We're additive. TNA handles the operational layer, which frees your Development Director to focus on donor relationships and your ED to focus on strategy. Many of our best engagements sit alongside an existing development team.
A 20-minute conversation. We ask about your biggest operational challenge and share at least one specific recommendation you can act on that week, whether or not you hire us. No pitch. No prep required.
