Our Approach

Understanding Your Opportunity

 

While many view challenges as obstacles, we see them as opportunities for innovation and improvement.


Our process begins with a collaborative meeting to clearly understand the objectives you want to achieve, along with your timelines and expectations. We review the tools and resources you currently have to ensure they are being fully leveraged, and we provide unbiased, needs-based guidance to help you identify the most effective path forward.


We evaluate each opportunity from multiple perspectives, beginning with a “perfect-world” scenario—imagining how the ideal solution would function without any constraints. This approach allows us to work backward and design a realistic, high-impact implementation that aligns with your goals.

Opportunities > Problems

Nobody knows your organization better than you.


We understand the subject matter experts for your organization are your organization's team members.  The people who have put in their 10,000 hours truly understand their function better than we could.  That's why we work with your team to understand the underlying issues and work together to shape a new approach while utilizing technology and existing resources.  Small wins help us all start to reshape seeing problems as opportunities.


Let's  work together to reshape those hair-pulling and frustrating tasks to alleviate pressure on your team.

About The Team

 

Perpetual Impact was founded by Alex Holtel with a mission to help organizations maximize their impact by making the most of the tools they already have—and implementing new solutions only when they truly add value. After transitioning from the FinTech sector to the Community Foundation industry in 2017, Alex observed a significant gap between the cost and quality of many nonprofit technology solutions. Although the landscape is improving with new products and innovative approaches, Perpetual Impact strives to be a trusted guide in navigating this evolving environment.


Understanding that many organizations cannot support a full-time technical or operational team, Perpetual Impact offers an adaptable and cost-effective alternative. We draw on deep experience and strong relationships across the FinTech, Audit, and Community Foundation sectors to ensure our clients receive solutions that are both high-quality and cost-effective.


We believe in transparent, honest communication and will always acknowledge when we are not the best fit for a project. Above all, Perpetual Impact is grounded in a commitment to community and human equality. We do not engage in any work that marginalizes or discriminates against any group of people, for any reason.
