Real Path was born from the desire to help non-profits access the benefits of a design thinking approach.

​

We believe you need the truth to improve donor experiences. We are ‘Real’ because we deliver unparalleled insights directly from donors (we’re talking face to face with people - over zoom, in their homes, on the street, wherever they are). We remove assumptions, tell it like it is, and don’t sugarcoat your supporter insights. 

​

We draw from combined experiences in non-profit, fundraising, experience design, digital product development and customer strategy. 

We want to help you create the donor paths, programs, products, services and touchpoints that satisfy the real needs of your donors and create long-lasting connections between supporters and non-profit organizations.

We’re laser focused on donor experience design - it’s our jam. We love it, and it’s what we do really well.
