Hi, I’m Elena.
I believe wealth is a force for good.
As a strategy coach, I help mission-driven individuals and teams align their strategies with their values, design meaningful giving or fundraising approaches, and move important conversations forward with clarity and care.
Through coaching, training, and facilitation, I support the people who drive impact—so they can do it with more ease, alignment, and integrity.
Why The Good Philanthropist?
The Good Philanthropist exists to help individuals and organizations turn intention into lasting impact.
Clients come with big questions—about aligned giving, board engagement, strategic growth, or how to lead and raise funds with integrity. Sometimes it’s about a philanthropic vision that needs shaping. Sometimes it’s about a team or board that needs space to refocus and move forward. Sometimes it’s turning plans into action steps. Sometimes it’s that nagging item on your financial to-do list that you need a little extra support getting checked off (estate planning, anyone?).
In every case, the support is personalized, grounded in real-life decisions, and designed to meet you where you are. The Good Philanthropist offers space to think, tools to act, and thoughtful partnership every step of the way.
