I have been an Executive Officer of some of the Nations top nonprofit organizations for over 20 years. I under stand that fundraising is the essential cornerstone of each organization to help them be able to promote their mission. I have essentially done about ever type of fundraising throughout my career from small events to multimillion dollar campaigns. Below are some of my experiences. * Membership recruitment/ retention - I have managed Chambers of Commerce to large associations with 17,000+ members. I have gained skills that help members feel they are receiving a true ROI * Events - I have managed small scale high dollar events raising over $200,000 a night to large scale events with over 50,000 and over 100 volunteers as our support staff. * Miscellaneous - I have experience starting new and innovative fundraising programs to more traditional avenues like employee giving campaigns, auctions, golf tournament, online fundraising, end of year ask etc. I understand the basic principles that with no money you have no mission. I can help you find your niche and coach you along the way. My passion is in nonprofits and I see them all like a car... they all have different features, shapes and sizes but if you lift the hood they all pretty much run the same way. Contact me today I'm happy to help...
