"Hiring Larissa to work with Anova was a wonderful and critical first step towards transforming our fund development plan. Her work with our team and our board with her Culture of Philanthropy training allowed us to make immediate changes as well as plan for longer term solutions and strategies.

Larissa’s ability to engage our team in looking at fund development through a new lens has been crucial to our work. Hiring Larissa and Growth & Co. was one of the smartest decisions we have made to ensure quality and success at Anova. "
