Raise more money without burning out your small team

Fundraising growth for lean-staffed, community-based, founder-led and other smaller mission-driven organizations that do not have a dedicated development person or team.

Is this you?

  • Your donor information lives in several spreadsheets and part of a database.
  • You do not have a simple year-round fundraising and stewardship plan.
  • The board wants “more fundraising” and you are not sure where to start.
  • Fundraising sits on top of everything else your small team already does.

If that sounds familiar, this is exactly who I work with.

Who I work with

I help leaders of smaller mission-driven organizations who feel like they could raise more money if their fundraising was less chaotic and their donor information was easier to use.

Lean-staffed nonprofits Community-based organizations Founder-led charities Health and disability orgs Children and human services Small faith-based ministries

Most clients fall roughly between $150,000 and $2,500,000 in annual revenue. If you are a bit smaller and can invest in help, we can still talk.

How I help you grow giving

I do not drop in, write one appeal, and disappear. I help you step back, clean things up, and put a simple system in place that you can actually run with your current staff.

A simple framework behind everything

With every client, I work through a straightforward process:

We also use practical AI tools in the background to help with list cleaning, draft copy, and simple tasks so your people can spend more time on real relationships.

Why trust me with your fundraising

I have spent more than twenty years in fundraising and nonprofit leadership, raising money for organizations working in health, disability, children, recovery, and international humanitarian work. Over that time, I have helped raise more than $100,000,000 for nonprofits and NGOs.

  • Managed multi-million dollar fundraising portfolios.
  • Worked directly with high-net-worth donors and family foundations.
  • Led teams of staff and volunteers in complex campaigns and events.
  • Built and rebuilt fundraising programs and systems from the ground up.

I know what it feels like when the board wants results, the donor information is a mess, and there is no dedicated development person or team to hand it to. My work now focuses on helping smaller organizations get the basics right in a way that fits their real capacity.
