What we do

Two practices. One discipline: building partnerships that last.

Rowse operates two practices — strategic advisory and growth for nonprofits, and corporate, experiential, and stewardship work for sports organizations and the brands that partner with them. Strategic partnerships are at the heart of long-term growth, and the discipline is the same whether the audience is a major donor or a global brand.

Frequently asked

Common questions, direct answers.

Rowse Consulting is a Philadelphia-based strategic advisory firm operating across two practices — strategic advisory and growth for nonprofits, and corporate, experiential, and stewardship partnerships for sports organizations and brands. Founded in 2021 by Seanna Crosley, our team brings 20+ years of senior partnership and fundraising experience to the work.

We work with nonprofit executive directors, CEOs, and boards; sports organization partnership leads; and corporate CSR and partnership directors. Our flagship clients include Philadelphia Soccer 2026 — the official Local Host Committee for the 2026 FIFA World Cup — alongside Fred’s Footsteps, Founding Forward, and 20+ organizations across the Northeast and beyond.

Both — and that’s the differentiator. Partnership-building is the underlying discipline. We apply it to nonprofit fundraising on one side, and to sports, experiential, and corporate work on the other. The same senior team works across both practices.

We are based in Philadelphia, where most of our work is rooted. Our client base extends nationally, with engagements ranging from local Philadelphia nonprofits to national organizations and major sporting events. We remain a Philadelphia-first advisory practice.

Most engagements begin with a 30-minute discovery conversation. From there, we scope a multi-month strategic engagement that combines strategy with execution. Senior team members stay in the work throughout, ensuring continuity from planning through delivery.

A note from a client

“Working with Rowse Consulting has been a game-changer for Fred’s Footsteps. Their expertise has helped us think more strategically, grow our fundraising capacity, and achieve results we once only imagined. With their guidance, we exceeded our fundraising goals during our 20th anniversary year, including achieving a record-breaking 241% increase in foundation and corporate grant funding. More than consultants, they are true partners who believe in our mission and have positioned us for meaningful, lasting growth.
