Our Story

Committed to building thriving communities by making connections that drive results.

3fold’s founders, Gordon Fowler and Angela Criser began their business partnership in Washington, DC, helping the U.S. Department of Labor reach displaced workers and get them into new jobs. While the work was certainly fulfilling, they soon realized they wanted to do more.

Opening 3fold in 2004 with a vision of contributing to thriving communities, Gordon and Angela set out to prove a for-profit marketing agency could be successful while improving outcomes and changing lives in communities across the country.

Focused on delivering great storytelling and communications, 3folders are dedicated to making essential service organizations shine. Everything is about communicating the value of their work to funders, community leaders, residents, and customers.

Our Purpose

Through our work, people, and investments, 3fold helps essential service providers understand and effectively communicate their stories, leading to more informed residents, changed lives, and provable outcomes.

Our Promise

We lead our clients to understand and tell their stories in ways that are relevant to their customers’ lives (in context) and connected to what people care about right now (in culture).
