Our library is filled with incredible stories—each one a testament to the vision, dedication, and impact of the clients we’ve had the privilege to partner with. From transformative campaigns to milestone achievements, we are honored to have played a role in bringing these stories to life. Here are just a few of the amazing organizations we’ve collaborated with, sharing their experiences of working with us in their own words.
Don’t Take Our Word For IT
“When we hired The ARC Collaborative for our campaign kickoff, we didn’t just hire a vendor; we hired a partner. The ARCC team took time to get to know, understand, and become a part of our community, our University system that spans our state. And they listened. They listened to what we wanted to do, what we were trying to do, and also what we were struggling with, and came up with a plan that helped to guide us through the entire two-year planning process, execution of a successful public campaign launch, and beyond. They showed up and showed us that they care about our success by bringing their extensive experience and expertise to our project. The ARC Collaborative is one of the big reasons we were able to have such a great kickoff for Only in Nebraska, our largest campaign to date.”

"The USU Create Your Aggie Impact campaign event in the summer of 2024, created in partnership with The ARC Collaborative, was a true catalyst—igniting powerful conversations before, during, and long after, that inspired individuals to engage, give, and envision a brighter future for USU.
The experience moved donors and unlocked new ways for them to create impact—setting the stage for a new era of transformational giving."

"The ARC Collaborative team was very enthusiastic, creative and easy to work with throughout the process. They took their time to find out who and what the University of Arizona is. Their attention to detail and keeping to timelines was commendable. As changes and adjustments were made, they rolled with the punches. In addition, their partner company Wired Production Group was simply amazing, courteous and helpful at every turn. (Oh, and fun to work with!)"

“This talented team was a pleasure to work with for the Campaign ASU 2020 launch event. We were blown away by the videos and the way their team told our story. Further, their flexibility, dedication to our mission and goals, and overall approach was a great match. The ARCC team created a first-class production that has served as a terrific momentum builder for Campaign ASU 2020!”

"Our trustees and major donors were delighted and surprised by the quality of the productions. They had never experienced something like that before. Our chancellor said, ‘This is our new normal,’ and called it a game changer."

“The production value was incredible! At the event, when the video started playing and the lights synced perfectly with the visuals it was such a powerful moment. It was so cool to see everything come together, and honestly, I wish I could’ve experienced it more than once!”
Charlie Koors
Director of Donor Engagement & Events

"It was our privilege to work with your team. We are still basking in the afterglow and receiving a steady flow of incredibly positive outreach from alumni, donors and community members. And, the media coverage has been outstanding. The event did exactly what we needed it to do—deliver a passionate and well-articulated vision for the future that invites our audience to support that vision through their philanthropy. Thanks for creating this powerful platform upon which we can build our University's future."
