Audits and Assessments
It's important to take time to benchmark your current performance in order to know where you want to go in the future. I'll review your organization for efficiency, awareness and perception, and strengths and weaknesses to provide actionable steps you can take now and in the future to build fundraising capacity.
Speaking and Facilitation
Ongoing professional development is vital to the success of an organization. It can be difficult to find the right training that addresses all of the areas for growth without your team spending hours or days in sessions that only somewhat apply. I’ll design an inspiring keynote, custom workshops, retreats, or training for your organization to address your team’s challenges and fit into your timeline.
Operations Support
I am here to support you in all things fundraising. Whether your agency has an annual budget of $500K or $15M, a one person shop or a 12-person development team, you can engage in a version of support that is right sized for you.
