What People Are Saying
Melanie is a rare sort of professional that could only exist with years of practice and a deep dedication to personal authenticity and community.

You will be so glad you chose to count on Melanie and her team.
— Stephen Coger, Director, Arkansas Immigrant Defense
M. Palmer Consulting was instrumental in helping our team at Northwest Arkansas Food Bank build out our grants management program. MPC came in and helped overhaul all aspects of our program. This was right before the pandemic hit and we saw food insecurity skyrocket. MPC had us in a strong position to aggressively pursue new funding opportunities that led to significant revenue growth and program expansion in a time when we needed it the most. I strongly recommend M. Palmer Consulting for anyone looking to expand their organization’s fundraising capacity.
— Mike Williams, Chief Executive Officer, 7hills Homeless Center
Melanie is an expert in her field. She is a strong communicator, well-organized, and works with a collaborative and enthusiastic spirit.
