Our Clients
After a year before the end of the Obama administration, we began the process of planning the transition of Reach Higher – Mrs. Obama’s college access and completion initiative – from the White House to Civic Nation, a new non-profit. Without its support, we would have gotten off to a much rockier start. Dalberg was thoughtful, responsive, and detail-oriented, reassuring and were great teachers. It’s been a blessing working with them.
