Meet our founder Elizabeth Neufeld.

When I was 10 years old, I was part of a group of kids who started a nonprofit called Caring About Kids Everywhere (CAKE). Although our acronym was maybe the most prolific work we accomplished, this nonprofit “foundation” led me to discover that I enjoyed being part of a community of givers, doers, and people who wanted to find solutions to problems.

Fast forward to college. I knew (or, thought I knew) that I wanted to be a journalist. Fast forward again to me realizing that journalism is a slog and being on the news isn’t all it is cut out to be (3 am wake ups, hair and makeup, editing on an Avid). Throughout this discovery process, I learned about my strongest traits and how I could use them in a career. I identified that I am actually really good at telling people’s stories (empathetic nature) and can sell seashells at the seashore (convicted and well-researched) — all while also turning a profit (skilled at math and budgets).

So, I enter the world of nonprofit marketing, communications, and fundraising, where I develop a love and passion for working with companies on their fundraising strategies as a way to engage employees.

My career has been anything but straightforward. I never made it to graduate school, even though I had intended to do so. I have worked in education, nonprofit, real estate, documentary film, sports, healthcare, and more. But, through it all, I kept telling stories (real stories, mostly) and looked for ways to foster connections, create relationships, and help change the world.

I founded Strat Labs in 2017 after my last stint in-house with a nonprofit. I knew there had to be a better way to bring marketing, communications, and fundraising together for both nonprofits and companies. And I was determined to figure it out.

Fast forward (one final time) to the present day. I have been able to curate the most incredible team of experts, who are as passionate about storytelling and philanthropy as I am. We have had the privilege of working with some incredible brands with so many more on the horizon.

We continue to refine our process and empower purpose-driven brands and individuals to refine their story, amplify their voice, and build their community through strategic
marketing, communications, and philanthropy.

My vision is that Strat Labs will be here for many years to come and be known for our work in social impact. Together, we will, help move an industry forward with exponential growth, encouraging consumers to seek out and support purpose-driven brands and nonprofit organizations thus creating a net positive impact on the world.

If you have a desire to change the world, we want to know you.
