History
Established in 2010.
We’ve Been Helping Nonprofits Fund Progress Since 2010. Parisleaf was founded by Chad and Alison Paris with a simple but ambitious vision: to build a place where good people could come together to do meaningful work in service of the greater good. What began as a small, collaborative studio has grown over the past 15 years into a close-knit team of nearly twenty strategists, writers, and designers united by a shared belief in the power of philanthropy to shape a better future.
Over that time, Parisleaf has evolved with intention. We began as a generalist branding agency, but we became increasingly drawn to the unique challenges and possibilities of fundraising campaigns—where branding, belief, and generosity intersect. We saw that campaigns are not just about raising money; they are moments of transformation that ask institutions to articulate who they are becoming and invite donors to help make that future possible.
Meet the Business Owner: Chad P.
We are guided by five core values—gratitude, responsibility, integrity, candor, and empathy—which shape how we hire, how we collaborate, and how we show up for our partners. Our exclusive focus on fundraising campaign branding has allowed us to develop deep expertise and insight, resulting in campaigns that are distinctive, memorable, and effective. To date, we have partnered with institutions to brand and name campaigns representing more than $20 billion in campaign goals, helping raise over $10 billion in philanthropic support.
At the heart of our approach is partnership. We work alongside fundraising leadership, counsel, and internal teams, bringing a brand perspective into the conversations that matter most. We don’t see ourselves as a vendor, but as a trusted collaborator—one invested in your success.
Parisleaf is the brand partner that helps institutions fund progress by turning ambition into belief—and belief into action.
