We've worked in the shelters, in the workplace, and
in the boardrooms of dozens of nonprofit agencies serving
communities. We have served on United Way panels, nonprofit
agencies' boards of directors, and volunteer public relations and
marketing committees. We've led corporate fundraising campaigns for
nonprofits, supported community drives, and responded during crises
including the Oklahoma City bombing. We've written grants and led
fundraising efforts for nonprofit organizations. |

| Fundraising |

|
Fundraising begins with strong public relations skills designed to build
mutually beneficial relationships between nonprofits and funders. We can
help you
develop strategies to identify and profile target funders, communicating
with
them
the effectiveness and appeal of your organization's solutions,
and building mutually beneficial long-term relationships with them.
Grant writing
Effective grant writing is 80% research and 20% writing -
and is most definitely an art form. Research accurately matches the need
with
those of a funder...then great writing tells the story in an accurate and
compelling way.
An effective proposal focuses on the client and their need - that is,
the condition in their life that the grant proposes to change.
The proposal must logically describe the proposed methods, timeline,
and budget to facilitate that change. The objectives
must be measurable, the writing crisp, the story compelling,
the format precise, and the details accurate. The proposal must logically
appeal
to a funder and emotionally move them to act. It's no small task by any
means.
We can research grants for you, help you write them or write them for you,
or evaluate and provide effective feedback to improve your grant writing or
grant writing process.
Special Events
Special events aren't just about logistics, although those can be
overwhelmingly detailed. Special events are marketing events designed to
meet
specific objectives with targeted groups. Those groups may be funders,
clients,
volunteers, peer nonprofits, politicians and government officials, even
board members.
