An Opportunity For Nonprofits

Grow Your Nonprofit with Free Marketing Support

We know nonprofits face unique challenges.

Our mission is to help you make a bigger impact by connecting with more people, growing online engagement, and inspiring action (like volunteering or donating).

When you apply for our Marketing from the Heart program, the selected recipient will get a team of digital experts who are passionate about your cause and ready to make your message heard.

What Your Nonprofit Could Get:

• Tailored Strategies: We’ll create a digital marketing plan that fits your nonprofit’s needs perfectly.
• Expert Help: You’ll have monthly check-ins with our strategists to keep things on track and make sure our efforts match your mission.
• Full Support: From setting up Google Analytics to managing the Google Ad Grant, we handle the tech stuff so you can focus on what you do best.

How Marketing from the Heart Works:

After the application period ends, our team will vote to select one nonprofit to receive our services.

To get started, we’ll need access to tools like Google Analytics, Google Ads, and your website. 

We spend three months working alongside your nonprofit and help you optimize your website, apply or optimize ads for the Google Ad grant, and develop realistic strategies to set you up for success — so you can continue to use these tools and tactics long after your time with us is over.

We’re excited to maybe partner with you and help your nonprofit make a bigger impact. We hope you’re ready to elevate your mission with digital marketing!

Note: Applications for Marketing from the Heart are currently closed. We’ll reopen applications in May 2026. Read this post to learn about how the program started before you apply!
