Building a better world,
one conversation at a time
At CAUSEWORX, we help non-profits connect with their donors – building relationships, inspiring generosity, and making it easy for donors to give.
The CAUSEWORX Difference
We bring our hearts to work.
At CAUSEWORX, you don’t need to check your compassion at the (virtual) door.
We are fueled by a desire to make a difference, and we can’t stop talking about the things that matter most (in fact, it’s what we do best!).
We listen to donors – really, really listen.
Conversations are a two-way street. Whether a donor is ready to give today or not, we listen to what they have to say and make sure they feel understood and appreciated. Then, we share any relevant feedback with non-profit leadership, giving them a 360-degree perspective on what donors are thinking, feeling, and saying.
We know how to make an impact.
Our results speak for themselves – after 30 years, we’ve mastered the art of non-intrusive, friendly, action-inspiring conversations.

What We Do
You know what it’s like when someone starts talking about a cause that really matters to them?
Their eyes light up.
Their voices lift.
They share personal stories about the issue – why they care, what they want to see happen. Then, they start to think more about their role in the cause.
They start to wonder,
“What more can I do to help?”
At CAUSEWORX, starting these conversations is our superpower
Through heartfelt, relationship-building phone calls, we help donors rediscover what they love about the organizations they support. We inform, connect with, and, most of all, listen to donors, motivating them to take action and have an even greater impact.
The result is a win-win-win: donors leave the conversation feeling excited about their gift, non-profits have the funds to achieve their mission, and our amazing fundraisers leave work every day knowing they made a difference.
Now, that is something worth talking about!

Who We Are
Leadership Team
Our Team
Geoff Lloyd
Leadership Team
It’s been over 30 years since my first call with a donor. We were working with an inner city mission and I just loved hearing the donors’ passion for helping these kids and families that really needed help. Speaking with so many of these donors; mostly elderly, compassionate and generous, just doing their part to help others, re-shaped my worldview and inspired what has become our vision — to change the way fundraising is done.
I knew that there had to be a better way than harassing these donors I’d come to love for another $25. CAUSEWORX represents a 30+ year pursuit to connect with and inspire (and be inspired by) donors.
What CWX means to me: I love how passionate our team is, how great they are and how they too want to change how fundraising is done!
Hobbies: My current hobby is jiu jitsu.

What inspires me: My daughter. Seeing her energy, ambition and kindness makes me want to do better every day. Her future is my inspiration, and my motivation to do well for her, and the world around us.
Hobbies: I am a total homebody who also loves the outdoors, long walks, bike trips with the family, or camping. Love to read, anything and everything I can get my hands on, and since my daughter also likes to read, we spend a lot of time talking about books, and doing creative writing to entertain each other.
What I love about CWX: There is a whole lot I love about CAUSEWORX, But if I had to narrow it down to one idea, it would be the willingness of small and large groups of people to come together to make a positive change in the world. CAUSEWORX has allowed me to see first hand how total strangers can participate in something amazing, and do something great. This includes our staff, of course, their dedication to the causes we work with has been absolutely amazing.
Favorite food or drink: Cold Pizza
What does the world need more of: empathy. I think that we too often cannot picture ourselves in the position others have found themselves in. We’re sometimes too quick to judge, or ignore others’ life experience while insisting that our own experiences must be a universal truth. Thankfully, I feel like we’re moving in the right direction and getting better at empathizing with each other.
