Balanced Good doesn’t just work for you; we work with you.
Our services are designed to keep non-profits and social impact organizations supported and mission-focused during times of change. With a focus on well-being and sustainability, we help your team navigate change, so you can keep doing the work that matters!
We offer:
Coverage: Parental Leave & Short-term Staffing
What It Is
Life happens, and sometimes that means moments of transition for you and your organization! Whether it’s parental leave, restructuring, or an unexpected staffing gap, Balanced Good offers flexible, compassionate, short-term and interim coverage to keep your team supported and your work on track.
How It Works
From day one, we immerse ourselves in your team, building a collaborative and solutions-driven relationship. We will co-create a roadmap of deliverables to ensure the role is covered and your team is supported during this time of transition. The result will be tailored employee leave support that strengthens your fundraising, operations, and leadership capacity while reducing burnout and turnover at your organization.
Our leave support includes:
- Parental Leave Coverage
- Short-Term Leave Coverage (Caregiving, Sick Leave, Bereavement)
- Interim Staffing Needs
“I owe a huge debt of gratitude to Balanced Good. Their guidance and expertise helped me navigate the complexities of balancing work and motherhood with grace and confidence. Their support has been invaluable, and I can’t thank them enough. What Balanced Good is doing is impressive.”

Consulting
What It Is
Sometimes, in the social impact space, you need someone from the outside looking in. Our consulting services are designed to step in and provide expertise and an outside perspective to help your team and organization get where you want to go!
How It Works
Our consulting packages are customizable to fit your unique needs. Consultations can include a one-time engagement or recurring support.
Areas where our consulting services shine:
- Building Annual Plans (creating a realistic roadmap for your fundraising or operational programs)
- Developing and creating employee handbooks and progressive policies that help your team thrive
- Audits and assessments of your current programs (anything from fundraising to operations)
“Working with Balanced Good has been a ride! A great one. We have purchased a donor data management system, which has been a huge upgrade. We now have a lovely case for support. We have a pipeline. And we have incredibly rich fundraising knowledge. We were lucky to find Balanced Good.”
Linda Arndt, Board Member, Chorus Hamilton

Coaching
What It Is
Social impact work can involve a lot of mess in order to achieve change. Our coaching services are built to help you address the mess, embrace bold leadership, and drive change in your sector while prioritizing long-term impact and employee well-being!
How It Works
Like our consulting services, coaching packages are customizable to your organization’s needs. Coaching can be one-on-one or in small or large group settings, and can be one-time engagements or recurring support.
Some of our coaching session topics include:
- Workload management and co-creation of realistic workloads
- Navigating change (in leadership, teams, systems, policy, or program development)
- Developing and growing a culture and understanding of inclusive, trust-based philanthropy
- Developing equitable and inclusive teams and policies that support growth
“Balanced Good provided thoughtful leadership, and asked the right questions, to set us up with robust policies – including a Fund Allocation Policy, Gift Acceptance Policy, Gift Acknowledgement Policy and Procedures and an Ethical Communication Policy – all of which will help guide the growth of our fundraising program. They took care in learning who we were to reflect South-East Ottawa Community Health Centre’s values in each policy.”
Kelli Tonner, Executive Director, South-East Ottawa Community Health Centre
