The world’s most important work needs builders, not spectators.

Sea Lea Studio is an impact studio for families, foundations, and firms.

We’ve sat in the family meetings and boardrooms where impact strategy gets decided. Now we work as co-builders with families, foundations, and the organizations they back, on the strategy, the story, and the community that carries it forward.

Foundations & Families

We work with families, family offices, and foundations who want their giving, their investments, and their influence working toward the same goals. We help you set philanthropic strategy, plan a spend-down, bring the next generation in, and serve as executive director when the foundation needs one. We also design convenings that bring the right people into the room.

Funds & Organizations

We work with funds and the companies they back. Many of your LPs are families and foundations, and we know how they think about where their capital goes. We help you build those relationships between capital calls, design annual meetings that bring investors closer to the portfolio, and shape the brand and content strategy that carries your story: how you explain your thesis, what you publish, and how you show up where your next investors are.
