“Very few writers can take the jumble of ideas and actions that represent our work and then translate them into a coherent message. Like a shaman who can straddle the worlds, Alchemy brings fresh, lucid coherence to complicated subjects and communicates them so compellingly, constituents are moved to action.”

“We contracted with Alchemy to raise the funds to cover a two-year, six-figure funding shortfall. In nine months, they delivered that and more. We now have the donor relationships and systems in place to cultivate a continuing source of funds to support our program growth.”

“ We have worked with Leslee Goodman, the principal at Alchemy, since 2003, and she has been an invaluable resource to us. Her expertise in writing, professionalism, and integrity, not to mention the excellent quality of her work, has changed the face of our organization. Leslee has taken us to a new level of success in grant funding and in public awareness through media relations. Any group or business that hires her will reap the rewards many times over what they pay her.”

“ Good things come from good people. Alchemy’s abilities have always complimented ours, so that our talents meld together to form a very good team. I easily can recommend their services to anyone.”
