Mission before technology
We start with your goals and processes. If the system doesn't match how your team works, they won't use it.
About Alpenglow
The first light on the summit.
Alpenglow is the warm light that touches mountain peaks just before sunrise and after sunset. You can see the summit clearly while the valley is still dark. That is what we do for nonprofit teams: help you see where you're going and the route to get there, then help you make the climb.
What we believe
Four principles behind every project.
No surprises
You get a written scope, honest estimates and regular check-ins. If something changes, you hear about it first.
Teach, don't hoard
We document everything and train your people, so your organization isn't dependent on us.
Built to last
We choose simple, standard solutions over clever ones, so your next admin can understand what we built.
Why a boutique practice
Meet Roger
You work with the expert, start to finish.
When you hire Alpenglow you work directly with Roger Miller, a 15x certified Salesforce consultant and former nonprofit executive director. Your project isn't handed to a junior team after the sales call.
Roger has delivered Salesforce for nonprofits since 2010, on his own and at national Salesforce partners, so you get agency-level experience with the attention of a small practice.
Alpenglow is based in Soda Springs, California, in the Sierra Nevada, and works with clients across the United States.
