Case Studies
1. CAPITAL CAMPAIGN
Building a Major Gifts Campaign from the Ground Up
With little experience in individual major giving, a nonprofit needed to turn an ambitious $1M goal into action. I developed a practical campaign plan, helped equip volunteers to become fundraising ambassadors, and created a clear path to identifying, cultivating and asking for significant gifts.
2. FRACTIONAL FUNDRAISING
Building Fundraising Capacity Without a Full-Time Hire
A national charity needed experienced fundraising support without adding a full-time position. Through a fractional fundraising role, I provided hands-on support while strengthening major gift strategy, donor stewardship and the tools and processes the team could continue using independently.
3. FUNDRAISING STRATEGY
From Prospects to Possibilities
A charity wanted to grow its fundraising and explore planned giving but needed to know where to focus. Targeted research identified high-potential prospects, followed by strategic counsel on how to approach, cultivate and engage them and build opportunities for long-term giving.
