Strategic partnerships CARMA regularly collaborates with industry stakeholders such as racing boards and media partners (e.g., CHRB rules, Sandia Creek Ranch Auxiliary Foundation, FanDuel TV). This indicates an opportunity to propose expanded sponsorship packages, co-branded fundraising events, and media leverage arrangements to amplify donor reach.

Diversified fundraising The organization raises funds through grants, purses deductions, events, and a placement program. This suggests potential for selling donor acquisition services, grant-writing support, and fundraising technology that enhances grant management and event ticketing.

Niche credibility With a proven track record of awarding over $3.2 million since 2008 and a formal retirement pathway for Thoroughbreds, CARMA presents a compelling case for high-touch donor stewardship, impact reporting platforms, and gated giving programs targeting equine enthusiasts and racehorse owners.

Technology footprint Current tech stack includes common WordPress plugins and hosting services. This indicates openness to modernization projects such as CRM integration, donation optimization, analytics dashboards, and user-friendly event management tooling.

Visibility and media Recent media partnerships and high-profile coverage (FanDuel, industry outlets) suggest CARMA has media leverage and outreach ambitions. This creates opportunities to propose sponsorship activations, content strategy, and multi-channel fundraising campaigns to maximize donor exposure.
