“She’s all about the story, spoken in words – received by ears. In addition to being able to talk about anything, she is fluent in the language of philanthropy. She’s adept at asking questions, listening, and deciding which strings of ideas and words stay or fall away. In this way, the word “writer” is not quite right. Righter is more like it.”

“Jen Pitts took our gala speeches from adequate to inspired. She’s a deep listener, creative writer, and powerful story teller. She simply gets it.”

“I don't know anyone else who can so thoughtfully link authentic storytelling to strategic fundraising initiatives as powerfully, empathetically, and emotionally as Jennifer Pitts does. From masterminding, writing, and directing PSA and testimonial films, to authentically penning speeches and entire programs—as well as training the speakers that thread the needle for fundraising support—Jennifer is our secret weapon and goes unmatched in the industry. She is such a pleasure to collaborate with that I find projects to align on so that I have more opportunity to be in the foxhole with her!”

“In addition to the information I want to convey, Jen takes the time to understand who I am as a person, and has easily saved me a thousand hours of work. With a couple interviews, rough notes or even a high level sense of what I want, she is able to build a full speech, written in my “voice” and coach me through the delivery. She makes it fun.”

“Jen is a trusted confidant, master storyteller, and uniquely talented speech writer. I am incredibly lucky to have worked alongside her for the last 15 years in the fight for a better San Francisco, and grateful for her wisdom and her work ethic.”

“Working with Jen for many years across a variety of projects—like the Robin Hood Heroes Breakfast, the Robin Hood Benefit, and so much more—has been an extraordinary experience. Jen has a gift for uncovering the heart of every story, shaping it with precision and care, and coaching speakers to share their voices with confidence. Her thoughtful approach and artistry bring a unique depth to everything she touches.”

“Jen is one of the best communications professionals I have ever worked with. She has not only written multiple speeches for me over the past two decades, she has coached me on delivering the speech to have the greatest impact. Whether working with a program participant or a C suite leader, Jen treats every story with respect and empathy -- like it’s a gift that is being offered to the world. I have also seen Jen teach her genius to other communications professionals and train non-profit caseworkers and staff. She refuses to settle for good, she has helped so many people in this field become great.”

“I’ve done a lot of public communications over the years — including a TED Talk that received more than 10M views — there is no one that I trust more than Jen Pitts to help me craft and deliver my message in a way that is impactful and resonant.  Whenever I have communications needs, from OpEds to speeches to media prep, Jen is absolutely my go to person. Not only does she deliver content in a way that moves people to action, we have a ton of fun doing it!”
