Client Testimonials:

“Hozhonigo understands our native-led organization well. They are responsive and pleasant to work with, and, most importantly, they are versatile in terms of the type of support they are able to provide. So, for example, while we contracted with them to work on foundation giving, they were able to pivot to provide us with crucial support for our individual giving needs.”

“As the executive director of a small and growing organization, I didn't have the capacity to hire full-time development expertise to support our growth. Hozhonigo not only helped our organization raise 60% of our operating budget in a few short months, but also has a network of experts that gave me clear advice on growth strategies. I appreciate their professionalism, their communication style, and how easy they are to work with.”

“Hozhonigo Consulting is top of the line! The entire team is so professional and knowledgeable about grants. Any clarification on documents or processes was immediately sought out and answered. Moving forward, I will only work with Hozhonigo Consulting because of the high level of trust I have in them!”
