About Me and My Work

What kinds of projects, tasks, or challenges do you typically partner with nonprofits on?
In my role as a nonprofit consultant, I partner with organizations on a range of projects, tasks, and challenges. I assist in planning and executing successful fundraising campaigns, spanning from annual fund drives to major gift solicitations and capital campaigns. Strategic planning is another area where I provide significant support, helping organizations create and implement plans that align with their mission and set the course for their future.

I also conduct board training sessions, where I enlighten board members about their roles, responsibilities, and how they can best contribute to the organization's mission. With my innovative approach to fundraising, I aid nonprofits in integrating new giving methods such as cryptocurrency into their donation options, thereby expanding their reach to a new demographic of potential donors.

In today's digital age, proper data management is crucial, and I help organizations optimize their use of donor databases by advising on best practices for data entry, management, and analysis. I'm also adept at identifying potential major donors and designing effective planned giving programs, both of which can dramatically increase an organization's fundraising potential.

For larger scale projects, I provide guidance in planning and implementing capital campaigns, which are aimed at funding specific large-scale objectives. I also help individuals and groups navigate the complex process of establishing domestic and international nonprofit organizations.

Finally, my understanding of data trends allows me to assist organizations in crafting innovative online marketing campaigns. These campaigns are designed to engage potential donors, enhancing the organization's overall fundraising efforts. In essence, my diverse skill set and expertise make me an invaluable asset for any nonprofit looking to enhance their operations and reach their goals.
Why would someone choose to work with you?
My proven track record, characterized by the $100 million+ I've raised for over 150 nonprofit causes and educational institutions, establishes my effectiveness in fundraising. Being a Certified Fund Raising Executive, I bring a level of expertise that's recognized and respected in our industry. What sets me apart is my innovative approach to fundraising. I'm an early adopter of novel methods, such as leveraging cryptocurrency for charity and crowdfunding, showing my adaptability in the ever-changing landscape of philanthropy. This adaptability and innovation have earned me national recognition, a testament to my contributions to the nonprofit sector.

In all my fundraising work, I rely on heavy levels of constituent and prospect research to inform realistic strategies and goals while promoting diversity throughout my fundraising strategies. 

My proficiency extends beyond fundraising; I offer skills in strategic planning, board training, and much more, making me a versatile asset to any organization. Above all, my educational background and commitment to continuous professional development underscore my dedication to staying at the forefront of the fundraising sector. My blend of expertise, innovation, and dedication positions me as an ideal partner in philanthropy.
