Why "Hockeystick"

A hockeystick is a statistical pattern.

A hockeystick is a line-chart pattern that shows a sharp increase after a long period of modest change. It looks like, well, a hockey stick. It mirrors the best kind of grassroots fundraising: when supporters you've nurtured for months — or years — suddenly explode in enthusiasm. It's the right message meeting the right audience. That's where we come in.

What we do

How we grow your grassroots fundraising.

We provide causes and candidates with unique audiences of true believers — sourced, modeled, and matched by issue, cause, and campaign affinity, then delivered for your texting and email programs.
