"As the manager of Dayton Children’s Hospital Foundation’s donor communications, it has been my pleasure to work with the team at DaVinci Direct since 2019 for our direct mail program. In that time period, revenue from direct mail has increased by more than 150% and donor loyalty remains among the strongest of our annual giving programs. As a long-time client, what I appreciate most is DaVinci’s creative and dedicated team. Their customer service is beyond compare. Our account executive is an excellent communicator, responsive to any question or need, and constantly generating new ideas and tactics to help us meet our goals. The creative team understands our brand and our donors – they know how to write and design an effective appeal. And they understand how to delve into our data to create highly targeted mailing lists that are most likely to respond. All these reasons, and many more, are why I highly recommend DaVinci for fundraising!"

"I arrived to St. Francis House inheriting a direct mail partner who was comfortable in chalking up six-figure losses in back-to-back-to-back years as a post-COVID dip, and proffered no strategies on how to stop the bleeding or breathe new life into stale creative. Six months later, after a thorough RFP process, we selected DaVinci Direct as our new direct mail partner.

The results have been incredible: fresh, new creative that places the donor at the center of our efforts and tells the stories of our guests in creative and respectful ways; a new approach to the mechanics of the program that saw a huge increase in online and text-based giving; and, most importantly, stability in revenue. The entire team takes a strategic, collaborative approach to everything they do, and are great partners to work with."

"I’ve had the pleasure of partnering with DaVinci Direct at two different nonprofit organizations, and each time they’ve delivered exceptional results. Their team understands the nuances of donor engagement like few others—combining data-driven strategy with emotionally resonant storytelling across every channel. From direct mail to digital integration, DaVinci doesn’t just execute campaigns—they elevate them.

What sets them apart is their deep commitment to mission-driven work. They listen, adapt, and consistently bring fresh creative ideas that align with our values and audience. Whether we were launching a match appeal or building a monthly donor program, DaVinci helped us exceed our goals while staying true to our brand. I trust them implicitly and consider them an extension of our team."

“DaVinci Direct is a partner that understands all the intricacies of omnichannel marketing and direct mail. Riley Hospital has been a partner for 18 years and DaVinci Direct has driven exceptional results in both revenue and response, more than doubling annual net revenues and driving response rates through the roof!

They write with a purpose and know how to share a story for impact. Their exact testing and extensive knowledge have allowed Riley to mail less donors, and lower our costs, while at the same time, increase donors and revenue. I’ve been impressed with their level of service and responsiveness, even as we are 1,000 miles away. I highly recommend DaVinci’s expertise and services.”

“DaVinci Direct revitalized our entire direct mail program over the course of 4 years. A boutique firm with a truly collaborative approach, their commitment to customer service is stellar. Our impressive program growth and outstanding results are a testament to their strategic thinking, industry expertise, and creative excellence."

“DaVinci helped MSPCA improve net income by more than 50% in year one by mailing smarter, improving our creative and testing into less expensive formats. MSPCA’s relationship with DaVinci spanned 17 years, and we achieved superior results year after year.”

“The Rhode Island Community Food Bank had a successful, 15-year relationship with DaVinci Direct, starting when they launched their firm in 2006. As an agency, their custom approach and ability to pivot as needed is unparalleled.

Partnering with DaVinci is a true collaboration. They listen to direction on overall messaging, and craft impactful campaigns that achieve excellent results, often suggesting tests or tweaks to save money or boost response. Tony and Steve are a pleasure to work with, and helped the Food Bank achieve its mission year after year.”
