ISF Group - About Us

Bruce Ganger, Managing Director

Bruce founded ISF Group after recognizing a need among nonprofit organizations to have an implementation option that would create innovative appeals based on organizational needs and that would operate like a member of the organization’s staff.  He has utilized personalized marketing techniques with large corporations prior to founding ISF Group, and also started and built a web-based software company whose primary market was personalized marketing materials for corporations.  Bruce serves on the Boards of the Association of Fundraising Professionals First Coast Chapter and the Partnership for Philanthropic Planning of Northeast Florida, and is a member of the Coastal Georgia AFP Chapter.  He serves on the Board of Directors for Kellogg Fellows Leadership Alliance in Denver.

Peg Ganger, Director and Operations Manager

Peg keeps the wheels turning for our team and for our customers.  She’s very involved in the campaign strategy and makes sure the ISF Group team is aligned to deliver on time and on quality.  Peg has broad and deep experience in personalized marketing as she has consulted with corporations, agencies and print suppliers to create and implement programs for 10 years prior to joining ISF Group.  She is the incoming Board Chair for Girls Incorporated of Jacksonville, a member of the Association of Fundraising Professionals First Coast and Coastal Georgia Chapters and is a very active volunteer for several nonprofit organizations in the Jacksonville area.

Curt's been managing complex print and communications projects for clients in Jacksonville and Savannah for over 20 years.

Mary brings a classical marketing approach to her work for ISF Group based on her dual degrees from University of North Florida in PR and Communications.  She has a passion for the missions of our clients and throws herself into the work to maximize the opportunity for success in each and every appeal she works on.  As a result, she has become an active volunteer for a couple of our clients.  Off the clock, Mary enjoys long distance cycling and everything outdoors.

Vince Fattizzi – Account Executive

Vince has lived in St. Augustine for 10 years and has been active in many aspects of the community, including helping to start The Village Church at World Golf Village. He has an enthusiasm for our clients and their work that overflows into his commitment to define the most effective strategy to achieve their fundraising and donor relationship objectives.

Sally Fletemier, Database Analyst and Web Services

Sally is our resident geekess and has been working with us for many years.  She has a great command of relational databases and our web delivery capability, and loves to improve the effectiveness of our clients’ databases.  Sally was before her time as an early Internet entrepreneur and she loves creating ways to maximize the opportunities the Internet has to offer for cross-media marketing. 

Ellen Grant, Writer

Ellen brings experience from both sides of the nonprofit aisle, as she has served as a Development Director and as an Executive Director for two social services agencies, in addition to providing copywriting services to other nonprofits. She also did time as a Copy Writer for a direct mail advertising company and a stint with a local weekly magazine.   Her understanding of how to structure an appeal to uniquely tug at the heartstrings of each recipient comes from her background and her ability to clearly and succinctly build the case for giving, and create a compelling call to action.  When she’s not writing for ISF Group, Ellen is a Personal Chef.  Yum!
