We strategize and design with you,
not just for you.

You’re the experts on your community and what you do. That’s why we prioritize listening and working with you to understand your goals.

From there, we propose communications strategies and tactics to support and deliver on your aims. Our work is most effective when there are clearly defined targets and processes that we create together.

"Working with the Samara Collective has been a game-changer for my communications efforts at Groundwork USA. As part of a small team, I often need extra guidance and support, and scheduling office hours and attending training sessions with Samara provided exactly that.

Their staff was helpful and insightful, offering tips and advice on our year-end appeal messaging, social media ads and best practices, and overall communication strategy, which I still implement in my work today. The team went above and beyond by following up to ensure I had everything I needed and took the time to review my work thoroughly."
