Leaders who Fundraise with a mission in mind
Together, let’s uncover the fundraising hero in you
Whether you are the Executive Director, Board Member, volunteer or team member for your non-profit organization, your ability to lead the mission as well as raise money will make all the difference to your organization’s success.
Here’s the secret I can help you uncover:
You are already exactly the fundraiser your organization needs. With some one-on-one coaching and common-sense approaches, you can realize your own potential to create a heart-centered, transparent, values-based approach to fundraising that takes the fear and the fight out of asking for money. It’s simply getting out of your own way, leaning into discomfort, and focusing on a few key approaches that transform your solicitations into conversations.
When philanthropy is about relationships. . .
. . .fundraising becomes everyone’s business. . . .
. . .it’s not fancy,
. . .it’s not slick,
. . .it’s having real conversations with people you respect on issues you care about and working together to design solutions with measurable results.
