About Us
A tailored creative project requires a tailored team
We know just the right people to help you succeed.
What makes Us different?
We are a boutique creative agency with a specialty in philanthropy communications and a passion for emotive storytelling. Our content will stir the emotions of your donors, connecting the causes on their heart to your organization’s mission. You’ll get best-in-class creative that delivers results.
Our research-driven, strategic communications can be as personalized to your donor as you need. But donors aren’t the only ones getting the concierge treatment. Our clients do, too. We meticulously manage every detail of your project. We’ll also be your ambassador to our collective of creative talent that we have at our fingertips.
How our clients have witnessed exponential growth after partnering with us:
200%
year-over-year increase in major gift revenue over three years with our tailored communications
74%
year-over-year lift in Q4 revenue for a mass communications holiday fundraising campaign
As for budget, our costs are based on your deliverables, not fancy lattes and large office space overhead. We thoughtfully partner with clients who share our values, appreciate out-of-the box thinking and are willing to take some risk to gain high-value results. Consider us your strategic partner, not just a service provider.

Our Core Values
Our mission to do good is what drives us forward. Our core values are how we carry out that mission with everyone who comes in contact with Delta Creative.
Create meaningful connections
Forging relationships is at the heart of what we do, whether it’s between us and our clients and freelancers, or between our clients and their donors. The stories we tell are reminders of our shared human connection.
Strive in every direction
We are never satisfied with the status quo. We reach up, striving to innovate and tell better stories so we can always engage, surprise or delight donors. We reach out, knowing we reach our goals working shoulder-to-shoulder.
Give 360º respect
We respect our clients and the freelancers we work with, celebrating the unique contributions they bring to the table. We honour the trust given to us in our communications with donors, and value the experiences of beneficiaries through our storytelling.
Don’t cut corners
We are dedicated to delivering excellent service and high-quality content to our clients. As servant leaders, we do what it takes to achieve what’s best for our clients and their goals.
Feed curiousity
We have an insatiable curiousity that causes us to ask a lot of questions. This context deepens our understanding so we can better serve you and find new ways of doing things. We ask “What if…?” and then take the best path forward together.
I have a passion for helping organizations find ways to create deeper connections with their donors, especially with great storytelling. I love watching an organization grow when that’s done well.
HEATHER FINCH
Making Connections with Delta Creative’s CEO
As a child growing up in Chicago, Heather’s father sparked her love for narrative by taking the time to read stories together before he left for work every day. The city’s rich arts, culture, architecture and history further fueled her imagination and creativity, which would become the foundation of her career working with creative teams. She honed those skills working in production management for an animation studio.
After moving to Canada, Heather worked for World Vision, the country’s largest non-profit organization. As a creative project manager for their Brand and Creative team, she skillfully connected people, tasks and timelines to the goals of a project. She also led teams overseas to gather content for fundraising materials, bridging donors to beneficiaries through compelling stories. As a strategic communications manager for the Philanthropy team, she learned the power of bespoke communications when a major donor generously increased their multi-million-dollar giving by 300%, after receiving a concierge treatment for three years.
Whether it’s understanding the nuances between American and Canadian audiences, or the realities non-profit organizations face and the demands of creative teams, Heather knows how to effectively bridge the gap.
Heather created Delta Creative Solutions in 2019 to link fundraisers with creative solutions that change the landscape of philanthropy. She cares deeply about cause-driven work, partnering with others who do good in the world and building lasting relationships along the way.
