Our History
1981
Our co-founder and namesake, Bob Carter, joined Ketchum, one of America’s largest consulting companies at the time, and rose through the ranks. He became President in 1992, where he served until 2007.
2011 & 2015
Bob and Steve Higgins, Bob’s former colleague from Ketchum, partnered to begin building a team of senior-level fundraising and nonprofit consultants. Originally formed as Bob Carter Companies in 2011, our collective team renamed the company Carter to honor Bob’s professional and personal contributions to philanthropy in 2015.
