Rooted in Generosity, Built for Impact.
Knoll & Krest is built on the belief that generosity is more than just giving. it’s a catalyst for transformation. In a world where fundraising often feels transactional, we exist to bridge the gap between mission and movement, turning generosity into a powerful strategy for lasting impact.
Our name tells a story. "Knoll" represents a hill, an elevated place that offers a broader perspective and a clearer vision of what lies ahead. "Krest" signifies a high place, a peak of strength, stability, and achievement. Together, they form our guiding philosophy: to help organizations rise with purpose while staying true to our values.
Just as a knoll provides a vantage point and a krest represents reaching new heights, we’re here to lift and elevate others. We equip organizations with the tools, strategies, and support they need to maximize their impact. Knoll & Krest is a place of clarity and empowerment, where generosity becomes more than an action. it becomes a movement that carries missions forward and helps us reach our full potential.
Our approach is designed to reflect more than just fundraising. it embodies our commitment to vision, impact, and lasting influence. We focus on crafting narratives that inspire action, fostering donor relationships that create real change, and building organizations that don’t just sustain but thrive. With a thoughtful balance of strategy and heart, we stand as a testament to the power of generosity done right—where every gift moves a mission forward and every initiative leads to something greater.
