Our Community Has Noticed Our Work

We do more than help organizations. We build communities.

Awards

We know that our work makes a difference because our clients say it does.  But we also know that those clients do not work in a vacuum.  They are part of a larger community.  When the community recognizes that the work has value, we know we are truly having an impact well beyond day-to-day tasks or individual client successes.

Kennari Consulting has received numerous honors from the West Michigan Community, acknowledging our role in making this a better, more equitable, thriving place to live and work.  We are honored to be an integral part of this community fabric.

"What I love about Kennari Consulting is that their team meets you where you are in your fundraising journey. Your consultants take the time to get to know your organization and design a plan of work that is realistic, while at the same time they push you to achieve your development goals. With the support of Kennari Fundraising, the Community Food Club has been able to develop a clear development strategy with impactful results, all while remaining true to our mission and culture."
