A team of finance, HR, marketing, and operations experts who care about your cause as much as you, here to free you up for the reason you got into this important work.
Victoria, our Managing Director, spent years working inside youth-serving organizations. From the inside, she watched leaders try to do it all. They'd started their organizations to help kids grow and thrive, but their days were swallowed by HR paperwork, finance headaches, marketing scrambles, and the operational fires that come with running any organization. The work that pulled them away from the work that mattered.
Victoria saw a better way. What if there was a team that could take all of that off mission-driven leaders' plates? Not consultants giving advice from the sidelines. Not a vendor with a slide deck. A real team of finance, HR, marketing, and operations pros, embedded in the work, doing it for them. She believed it would work. She set out to build it.
She started with a few organizations. The difference was immediate: fewer fires, smoother systems, more time for the mission. And it quickly became obvious this wasn't a one-off. Leaders across camps, schools, early childhood programs, and enrichment organizations were all carrying too much alone. Today, Polaris Solutions grew into what Victoria had imagined: a back-office and marketing team for mission-driven organizations across the country.
Andy brings a decade of running organizations that serve kids and families. He started Polaris to be the back-office partner he once needed as a camp director.

A call with Victoria starts with your organization, not a preset package. She’ll ask about your team, systems, calendar, and the finance, HR, operations, or marketing work that keeps landing back on leadership.
From there, we’ll identify what Polaris could own, walk through the services that make sense for your organization, and build a first proposal around the scope.
