Meet the Founder
Greetings from FirstImpact Partners! I am Jake, founder and program developer with FirstImpact. Born and raised in Stockton and rooted in my Salvadoran heritage, my journey was paved with challenges, ambitions, and experiences that fueled my desire to champion impactful changes in communities.
Why We Came To Be
FirstImpact Partners emerged from a deep-seated aspiration: to fortify organizations by addressing one of their most pressing challenges—fundraising and program sustainability. We understand that in the heart of every impactful program lies the essence of human touch, genuine understanding of its beneficiaries, and the agility to innovate and continually improve. And to ensure that this essence isn't diluted in the myriad struggles for funds or limited staff capacity, we step in.
Services We Offer
Our suite of services strive to empower nonprofits, grant writers, government agencies, policymakers, and fundraisers. With a cornerstone belief in connecting dots between mission, vision, and actionable strategies, we provide:
Strategic Fundraising Solutions: We alleviate the constant hustle of seeking funds. By shouldering the grant-writing and fundraising initiatives, we let organizations stay flush with resources, so they never falter in delivering meaningful services.
Program Design & Evaluation: Turning ideas into impactful programs requires expertise and foresight. We intricately design interventions rooted in community understanding. Through rigorous evaluation, we ascertain effectiveness, adapt strategies, and magnify your organization's transformative power.
Applied Mixed-Methods Research: Bridging communication and information gaps is vital. We delve deep into communities, understanding their heartbeats, aspirations, and needs, ensuring programs resonate and are culturally in tune.
High Impact Campaigns: Changing narratives and behavior require compelling campaigns. We craft messages that resonate, leveraging a mix of data-driven insights and storytelling. By reaching hearts and minds, our campaigns catalyze meaningful change.
Our Vision
I imagine a future where leaders in social impact thrive. A future where leaders and on-the-ground partners can invest their time in crafting grand visions, forging powerful partnerships, charting bold yet attainable objectives, and amplifying their organization's influence and reach. FirstImpact Partners bridges the gap between audacious goal-setting and sustainable execution.
