I can help you lead your organization to a stronger financial footing.
When I started my career in the non-profit space, I had a vague interest in leadership, but a specific fear of fundraising. I knew it was one of the most important skills I would need to succeed, but it seemed intimidating and mysterious.
Now in my second Executive Director role, I now know that anyone can be a fundraiser, and fundraising can be one of the most rewarding parts of your job.
I’m especially passionate about:
- Giving Days (I’m proud that my last org was #1 in the state of NH during NH Gives 2019 and 2020 – out of 590 organizations)
- Communications and marketing strategies
- Short term steps for today that will sow the seeds of major giving tomorrow
- Effective story telling (of your org’s needs, successes, & struggles) as a tool for donor development
- Donor recognition and engagement
- Grant writing (and when to skip grant writing)
Below are a few examples of opportunities I’ve had to share ideas and expertise.
