We make it happen
We like to imagine all the good that could happen if you just had a little help. We're all about stronger communities, less limitations put on non-profits, and helping visionaries achieve the change they know is possible.
Grant Writing
We specialize in securing first-time funding for new programming and initiatives as well as multi-year funding focused on growth. We have experience along the full spectrum of grant writing from small community grants to provincial and federal grants.
Social Impact Coaching
Learn together with your team how to identify, clarify and highlight your impact. We will work collaboratively with you to gather and understand your data, develop a theory of change, create cases that measure and highlight your impact and make action plans for how to share this with your community.
Arts-Based Facilitation
Our goal is to use the arts to communicate the emotional aspects of experience and to lean on the creative processes and expression across the arts (written word, imagery, drama and sound) over fine skill-building.
Research & Evaluation
Our research and evaluation services seek to explore and document important human experiences, to explore new ideas, and for those ideas already created, we offer evaluation support so you can understand your strengths, limitations and how to grow your impact.
Program & Curriculum Development
We build high-impact programming and learning curriculums that are collaborative and rooted in the needs and input of those most impacted. Our approach supports the incorporation of best (better) practices, creative opportunities and key theories.
Arts-Based Community Building
We build community through arts activities designed to meet people where they are at in their creative confidence. We specialize in bringing larger groups together to participate in pieces of visual art that we bring together into a larger collective experience.
" I am very thankful for Jennifer's contributions to our work around peer support and gender-based violence. Jennifer made a strong contribution in her energy and creative ideas. I also really appreciated her facilitation style. It truly made a difference."

A persuasive creative thinker and unique problem solver.
Jennifer Gordon
Founder & Creative Specialist
Jen’s work focuses on one core question: why social systems so often fail the people they were meant to serve and how they can be reimagined to work differently. Her work is grounded in feminist leadership, transforming how power is used by centering the voices of those most affected by systemic inequities and rooting change in lived experience, intersectionality, and practical learning.
Working at the junction of action-based research, advocacy, and systems change, Jen helps communities move from values and commitments to real operational change. Her approach translates care and justice into policy and institutional practice, designing strategies that centre collaboration, equity, and lived experience, while building systems that are more inclusive, accountable, and responsive to the communities they serve.
Jen holds a Masters in Macro Social Work from Wilfrid Laurier University and coins herself as a creative multipotentialite with lots of ideas and a keen passion for dismantling equity issues within systems at various entry points like programming, policy, advocacy and helping to build political will.
The things she can talk for hours about include arts based belonging and placemaking, housing and homelessness, economic security and poverty, gender-based violence and building political will through relational advocacy… and cats.
