GGTS is the first firm organized specifically to provide comprehensive advancement services to non-profit organizations. Our founder, Thomas A. Gonser, a vice president at Northwestern University in the 1940s, pioneered the concept of advancement widely accepted today. We believe that the highest destiny of an institution can be realized only by a concerted effort on behalf of that institution to analyze its philosophy and formulate its mission, crystallize its objectives and project them into the future, and take the necessary steps to realize them. Our philosophy is built around a simple concept: enable non-profit organizations to achieve their highest destiny through personalized education and counsel. Since 1950 we have provided services to over 650 organizations, helping to raise billions of dollars in charitable gifts and transforming organizations in the process. We publish and distribute without charge the Bulletin on Public Relations and Development, one of the first and leading development educational newsletters for our industry. Each GGTS consultant works closely with client leaders in helping them clarify and promote the distinctive mission of their organization. Our clients represent a diverse group of non-profit organizations with varying missions that impact society and our world.
