Linksbridge SPC

About the organization

Linksbridge was founded in 2008 to partner with nonprofits whose missions we could think of as our own. Our objective was simple: offer superior service—more imaginative, better informed, better executed—while charging sustainable rates that wouldn't drain resources needlessly. If we couldn't succeed on these terms, we sincerely felt it better that we not succeed at all. The last thing we thought the world needed was another consulting and advisory firm committed mainly to its own interests.

Fifteen years later, we have the privilege of collaborating with some of the most effective global health and development actors in the world. While we're able to support them today at a scale we couldn't have imagined at first, we're proud to do it as we always hoped: sustainably, creatively, impactfully—in a spirit of camaraderie and not commerce.
