Fundraising and Public Relations Services

Fundraising Help You Can Trust

You have big plans to change the world. But there is one problem: You aren’t raising enough money yet. 


Finding someone who knows how to attract donors, keep them engaged, and grow revenue is hard. 


That’s where I come in.


SERVICES


On-Demand Fundraising Leadership

Development Director support without a full-time hire


If fundraising has outgrown your Executive Director and you want more bang for your buck, I step in as your on-demand Development Director for 6 or 12 months. In many cases it's better than hiring in-house.  


I provide hands-on leadership to:


  • Grow individual and corporate giving
  • Reduce over-reliance on grants
  • Build sustainable fundraising systems
     

You get senior-level expertise.


Fundraising Coaching

Clarity, confidence, and a plan that works


Ready to grow your individual donors and corporate partnerships, but you need direction?


My custom coaching helps you:


  • Focus on the right fundraising strategies
  • Stop guessing and start executing
  • See measurable fundraising progress within 90 days
     

You’ll move forward with confidence and a clear roadmap for growth.


Public Relations

Visibility that turns into funding


Don’t settle for being invisible.


Public relations positions your nonprofit in front of the people who matter most. My goal is to ensure that by the time you ask for a donation, the answer is already "yes."   


I specialize in campaign-specific PR that creates the urgency donors need to fund your next project immediately. 


I help you:


  • Earn meaningful media coverage
  • Build credibility and social proof
  • Increase donor confidence and response
     

You get the benefits of a PR firm without the cost.


The Familiarity Factor

Public relations acts as a turbocharger for your fundraising.


Science calls this the Mere Exposure Effect—the proven tendency for people to develop a preference for things simply because they are familiar with them. PR ensures you are the familiar, trusted choice.
