About Kelly Kostanesky and
KMMK Communications

One of my favorite sayings is “Spread the light, be the lighthouse.” I feel like it perfectly summarizes how I strive to live my life both personally and professionally.

Since I was a child, I've loved helping those in need and shining a spotlight on the work that others were doing. When I started college, I realized that I could fulfill both of those passions through a career in communications.

Now, with nearly 25 years of journalism and public relations experience, I combine a marketer’s strategy with a storyteller's voice to help nonprofit organizations build a deeper connection with their donors.

I look at every nonprofit organization as the lighthouse. And everyone you want to reach (whether it's who you serve or your donors, sponsors and volunteers) are the ships navigating the sea. My goal is to help your nonprofit shine a light on the work you are doing and reach the people you need to advance your mission.

Communication builds relationships. And relationships are at the heart of everything a nonprofit organization does. I'm passionate about helping nonprofits build lasting relationships so they can raise the funding they need to fulfill their missions and help the community they serve.

When donors support a nonprofit, they want to feel like they are a part of something bigger than themselves. Through my development services, I help nonprofits build those relationships so that donors feel like their contribution truly makes a difference and is more than just a transaction.

Do you need help spreading your light so you can gain more loyal donors, sponsors and supporters for your organization?
