About Me and My Work
What kinds of projects, tasks, or challenges do you typically partner with nonprofits on?

FUNDRAISING
We help organizations identify fundraising strategies through a balanced approach including annual campaigns, donor cultivation and identification, major gifts, and capital campaigns.
