We work with a wide range of clients—from grassroots organizations with budgets under $5 million to large, complex institutions exceeding $250 million in revenue. Our clients span sectors including healthcare, education, housing and homelessness, philanthropy, international development, social justice, and the arts. With each engagement, we tailor our approach to reflect the mission, values, and leadership needs of the organization.

Our team brings decades of nonprofit leadership and recruitment experience, allowing us to bring both strategic perspective and deep understanding of the roles we’re filling. We specialize in the recruitment of Executive Directors, CEOs, and senior leaders across key functions such as fundraising, operations, finance, and equity leadership. We also support organizations during critical moments of transition, including new strategic directions, leadership succession, and growth phases. Charity Search Group is known for our hands-on service model, responsiveness, and values-driven approach. Whether recruiting in urban centers or rural communities, we prioritize alignment, equity, and long-term success.
