We are a boutique fundraising counsel & business development advisory firm

AtchleyWhite + Associates (AWA) partners with mission-driven organizations and growth-oriented enterprises to design the strategic frameworks, operating models, and leadership alignment required to generate sustainable revenue over time. We work alongside our clients to install disciplined fundraising and business development systems that organizations can execute with confidence—long after our engagement concludes. We have a proven track record of guiding and supporting successful revenue generating endeavors including securing sponsorships, launching capital campaigns, and establishing business development strategies.

Our work spans both the nonprofit and for-profit sectors, supporting organizations across k-12 education, universities, healthcare, entertainment, music, biotechnology, arts, and real estate.

Since our founding in 2013, organizations we have advised have generated more than $600 million in revenue and philanthropic commitments, with revenue goals averaging $8M and often reaching $20-$30M. This experience informs the frameworks, decision models, and leadership strategies we bring to every engagement—grounded in what actually works, not theory.
