Two questions to answer before you change the world
Where are you going?
You have unique talents, resources, and connections. You feel a calling to help (that's why you're doing this!) and are trying to pursue it.
You need a north star
It's more than just your mission. Your north star defines what you're trying to do, why you're so passionate about doing it, how you're doing it and who benefits.
How do you get there?
Your north star points you in the right direction, but you still need to find a way to move forward. The next step is plotting a path to follow.
A map and a path
You need a plan for anything from high-level strategy to grassroots tactics. Pursue your north star through anything from strategic planning and operational assessments to learning & evaluation quality and establishing new programs.
Together we can multiply your impact
Hi, I'm Amber
I've worked in leadership roles with philanthropies and non-profits for more than 30 years: as a front-line worker, administrator, and executive. Now, I help foundations, non-profits, and individuals multiply their impact. I have a knack for seeing past the many distractions in the charitable world to the core problems that prevent you from more and better progress. I won't just tell you what you want to hear, because you don't make a difference standing still. I will help you make the decisions and take the steps you need to grow and change. Folks like you give their time, talent, and treasure to help others. I help you give better.
Here’s what that looks like
We talk together
The best way to uncover your north star and the path to achieve it is to talk to all the decision-makers and stakeholders involved–even if it's just one or two people. We'll sit down and plumb to the very bottom of who you are and what you're trying to achieve. Whether it's a big project or small, this is the best way to start.
We draw a map
With your north star as a guide, we'll draw up a clear framework that shows how to get there. It's your map to a greater impact in your area of expertise.
We collaborate
Ambra Advising won’t drop off the map and leave you to handle everything alone. We work together to refine the plan until you're confident you can use it to achieve your charitable goals. A map is only helpful if you're actually willing and able to follow it, so we'll also support implementation and accountability for the plan.
