Gloo's growing platform now provides full lifecycle, digital and data-driven donor development solutions
"Donor management is central to the faith and flourishing ecosystem, where most organizations fund activity through donations," said Scott Beck, CEO at Gloo. In the wake of the traditional year-end donation season, he added, "Now more than ever, nonprofits need an integrated approach to fundraising where technology, services, and expertise are all centralized to help meet the needs of donors and the organizations they support. We can now deliver this as Westfall Group joins Gloo, helping clients unleash the extraordinary generosity that fuels their missions."
Westfall Group is made up of three distinct brands including Westfall Gold, Brain Trust Creative and Parable Talent. Westfall Gold uses data-driven insights to create world class donor experiences for high-capacity, high-impact donors. Serving faith-based, health and medical, education, church and corporate clients, Westfall Gold delivers everything from attendance strategies to venue logistics to talent booking, production and messaging.
Brain Trust Creative, an experience design agency that works in the commercial and not-for-profit space, has a proven track record in production, live experiences and environmental design that helps brands transform how they engage with their audiences, teams, partners and customers. Parable Talent connects world-class talent with world-changing organizations.
"Joining Gloo allows us to tap into their ecosystem of technology, services, and capital partners, enabling us to expand our reach and serve more nonprofits and ministries with the capabilities they need to grow," said Bob Westfall, founder and CEO of Westfall Group. "Together, we can extend our collective impact and deliver more value to the organizations we support."
Westfall's services have natural synergies with Gloo 360 and Gloo Media Network, as well as other Gloo capital partners such as Masterworks, a premier marketing and fundraising company that helps organizations grow their impact, accelerate their mission, and deepen supporter relationships.
"The Westfall Gold team has been invaluable to Come and See as we build a community of generous patrons to support our vision to reach a billion people with the story of Jesus," said James Barnett, CEO at Come and See, and a Westfall Gold customer. "Having access to Gloo's network and technology presents a great opportunity for us as we continue our partnership with Westfall Gold."
Westfall Group will operate as a wholly owned subsidiary of Gloo. Founder of Westfall Group, Bob Westfall, will remain as Westfall Group's CEO.
