About Tailored Philanthropy
Senior Fundraising Consultants
Fundraising expertise, built around you.
We are a team of seasoned professionals in philanthropy who believe impact doesn't happen by accident. It is the result of strategy, relationships, and relentless execution - all tailored to the unique story of your impact goals.
About Us
Tailored Philanthropy brings together experts in philanthropy with decades of executive and senior development experience and a curated network of specialized fundraising professionals and grant specialists to deliver the kind of strategic, high-touch counsel that transforms development programs. From fractional CDO leadership and major gift pipeline development to comprehensive grant management across government, corporate, and foundation funders, we work alongside executive directors and boards who are ready to build something lasting — and need an expert partner to help them get there.
We also offer a discreet, highly personalized suite of services designed for families, family offices, and private philanthropists who want more from their giving - more intention, more rigor, more impact.
Fundraising that is genuinely personal.
Tailored Philanthropy was built on a simple conviction: that organizations doing meaningful work deserve counsel that meets them where they are, not off-the-shelf strategies designed for someone else's mission. Too many development programs stall not because the mission isn't compelling, but because the right expertise wasn't in the room at the right time.
We exist to change that.
By combining senior strategic leadership with a deep bench of specialized talent, we give nonprofits access to the kind of development sophistication typically reserved for large institutions, delivered with the attention and care of a true partner, not a vendor. And for families and family offices seeking to give with greater intention and impact, we bring that same discipline to designing philanthropic programs that are as thoughtful as the values behind them.
Our team has worked across a range of causes. We have led campaigns, built pipelines, secured government grants, cultivated major donors, coached boards, and guided families through some of the most meaningful giving decisions of their lives. That breadth, across sectors, across organization types, and across the full arc of the philanthropic relationship, is our clients' advantage.
Our Leadership
Tailored Philanthropy is led by a CFRE-credentialed senior executive and supported by a carefully curated team of specialists in philanthropy.
A Deep Bench of Specialized Talent
Every client engagement is staffed with the right people for the work at hand. We draw from a curated team of experienced fundraising professionals ensuring you receive targeted expertise without the overhead of a large firm.
The right team, assembled tailored for you.
Mack E. Campbell, MPA, CFRE
Founder & Principal Consultant
Mack Campbell brings more than two decades of experience in philanthropy helping some of the most respected organizations in education, health, human services, civil rights, and economic mobility. He has raised more than $100 million, and has led large, high-performing development teams to achieve significant and sustained increases in revenue.
Starting his career in development operations, Mack has a keen appreciation for how systems and technology can support, or undermine, a fundraising program. That foundation shapes how he approaches every engagement, from the strategic to the tactical.
As a gift officer, he has managed major donor portfolios spanning multiple national markets, cultivated leadership-level relationships from first contact to transformational commitment, and grown revenue by double digits year over year.
As a team leader, he has coached and mentored development staff at every level, from coordinators building their first portfolios to senior gift officers closing six and seven-figure gifts. He builds cultures of accountability, ambition, and care, and has a particular gift for developing emerging fundraisers into confident, high-performing professionals.
He has also worked closely with boards to help them move from passive observers to active, enthusiastic fundraising partners, clarifying expectations, building confidence, and giving board members the tools they need to open doors and make meaningful introductions.
He has worked with families to inspire and shape their philanthropy, helping them move from generous impulse to intentional strategy. Whether advising on grantmaking priorities, facilitating family conversations about values and legacy, or vetting nonprofit partners on their behalf, Mack brings the same rigor and care to private philanthropy that he brings to institutional fundraising.
A frequent speaker on philanthropy, including multiple presentations at the AFP International Conference, the DFW Philanthropy Conference, and the Blackbaud Conference for Nonprofits. Mack is a recognized voice in the sector. He holds a Master of Public Administration from the University of North Texas and earned his Certified Fund Raising Executive (CFRE) credential in 2015.
Our Core PrinciplesThe principles behind every engagement.
Relationships First
Fundraising is fundamentally about human connection. Every strategy we develop, every proposal we write, every donor we help cultivate is grounded in the belief that authentic relationships are the foundation of sustainable revenue. Acknowledging their importance, we work to build the systems that support transformative relationships.
Candor Over Comfort
We tell clients what they need to hear, not what they want to hear. A frank assessment of where a client or program stands and what it will take to get where it needs to go is the most valuable thing we can offer.
Precision Over Volume
We take on a limited number of clients at any given time because exceptional work requires genuine attention. We would rather go deep with fewer organizations than spread thin across many.
Built for Your Mission
We don't believe in copy-paste consulting. Every engagement is designed around your specific stage, culture, and goals.
Outcomes That Endure
Our goal is never to create dependency. We build systems, develop internal capacity, and transfer knowledge so that your organization emerges from every engagement stronger and more self-sufficient than when we arrived.
