Agents of Good

Agents of Good is a direct response and donor communications collective. One of our early lessons was that money follows value. We are students of relationship fundraising, nerdy about direct response and direct marketing, obsessive about the 1,000 things you must do to create a growing fundraising program, and – most importantly – we are emotional and vulnerable in our pursuit of #donorlove. 

SOFII partner since 2016

These kind donors give a regular gift of up to £999 each year. You can find out more about joining the SOFII Two Hundred, here.
