Insight Meditation Community: who are they?

Insight Meditation Community of Western Massachusetts is a non-residential community meditation center. Its mission is to offer the Buddha’s teachings to all who are interested, to help sustain and deepen meditation practice and to bring wisdom and compassion into daily life.

 

Fundraising, strategy + vision

Mieke started working with IWM as we were coming out of the pandemic. This community was asking big questions around the nature of their future, how to increase fundraising practices, and how to communicate their need. We engaged in a coaching relationship which included:

  • leadership of a strategic visioning retreat

  • creation of a timeline and assisting in implementation for a fundraising campaign celebrating their 25th anniversary

  • data segmentation

  • articulating and transitioning money narratives

  • training volunteers

  • planning for a new year
