Cornerstone Consultants: Offering expertise in marketing, organizational development, social enterprise and philanthropy for nonprofit organizations' growth, change and success.

Our national and international experience has given us a chance to work with creative nonprofits, foundations and academic institutions in the United States, Russia, Central Asia, South Caucasus, South Africa, India, Vietnam and China. We combine knowledge about innovative strategies with our skills in bringing practical solutions to organizations of all sizes.

As consultants, we step into the flow of an organization’s life and offer our skills and insights from our knowledge and experience. We listen to what is needed and work with stakeholders to design a project that reflects the needs, culture, and values of your organization.

A Client's Perspective
"Cornerstone Consultants offers not only a wealth of skills, experience and sound judgment, but also a depth of understanding about the unique challenges facing nonprofit and philanthropic organizations.  Mary Virtue has helped us to design and facilitate strategic planning, program design and evaluation projects.  In each case, she has employed well-considered, yet flexible methods aimed at making our work more effective, inside and out.  She has engaged our stakeholders in ways that represented our program in a positive, thoughtful manner.  Her synthesis of varying perspectives, combined with succinct, action-oriented suggestions, has been invaluable.  Her commitment to organizational and collaborative learning is unmatched.  And, at
the end of the day, Mary is a pleasure to work with because she produces—always on-time,
always accountable, always results-oriented."
