About Alloy

Stronger when
combined.

Two fundraising practices. One shared purpose. Alloy partners with nonprofits to help build equitable, thriving communities.

Our story

Different strengths.
A shared direction.

Alloy was formed in 2023 when Grant Scribes and Candy Berman & Associates came together. Their combined expertise brought grant writing and fundraising event support into one nonprofit partnership.

The name reflects a simple belief: combining strengths creates something stronger. That belief shapes both the team and the relationships Alloy builds with clients.
