Christian Banach partners with IPaintMyMind to Bring Art Programs to Underserved Communities

Chicago, Illinois, USA (July 11, 2022) – With non-profits understaffed and struggling to generate revenue, gain donors, and fundraise effectively, many lack resources for the critical sales training necessary to advance their causes. As part of its “adopt a non-profit” program, business development and growth consulting firm Christian Banach has partnered with non-profit arts organization IPaintMyMind. The alliance will help IPaintMyMind generate corporate partnerships and carry out its mission of bringing art programs to underserved communities by bringing the work of emerging artists to businesses.

The partnership brings to IPaintMyMind Christian Banach’s expertise in assisting award-winning marketing agencies and martech companies land 6- and 7-figure opportunities with corporate clients like Apple, Nike, and Google. The initiative is part of Christian Banach’s long-term goal of helping non-profits raise $10MM.

“Every year, our ‘adopt a non-profit’ program empowers organizations with critical sales training to help advance their mission,” said Principal/Chief Growth Officer Christian Banach. “As someone passionate about art, we’re especially excited to work with IPaintMyMind. Rather than make a financial donation, we believe we make a bigger impact by sharing our experience. As the proverb goes, “Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.”

“IPaintMyMind is honored to receive this support from Christian Banach. Their donation of in-kind support through donated consulting services will leave a long-lasting impact,” said Evan La Ruffa, Founder of IPaintMyMind. “Our team has learned so much through Christian Banach’s PROPEL process and looks forward to activating these new strategies to continue growing our mission. As an organization celebrating our 10th anniversary, the support from Christian Banach is kicking off our second decade of impact in an incredible way.”

As part of the partnership, Christian Banach has led sales training and strategy workshops to help the IPaintMyMind team define its value propositions, identify its target audience, and understand business development best practices. To help IPaintMyMind activate the business development program, the Christian Banach team will initially execute the program on behalf of the non-profit and transition it to IPaintMyMind over time.
