“I worked with Anne on a one-on-one coaching basis during my time leading fundraising efforts for a small nonprofit. Anne was incredibly helpful to our individual giving program — she helped refine our organization’s fundraising goals, suggested strategies for how to achieve those goals, and provided practical ways to measure our progress. Anne’s collaborative approach helped increase the number of new donors in our file by more than 200%. I highly recommend her coaching services!”

— Erin Wiegert, Regional Philanthropy Officer, American Red Cross

“Anne has been my fundraising coach for nearly the past year. Despite 2020 being an atypical year, we have not only raised more money than ever before, we have significantly diversified our donor portfolio. Anne not only understands the theory of fund development, she has a true grasp of the psyche behind giving. She has the ability to blend research into a real strategy that meets the needs of our organization.”

— Taikein Cooper, Co-Founder, Virginia Excels

“Anne has helped us rethink many of our events and given us strategies for fundraising that have brought immediate results. She has helped us do things we had only thought about doing “someday.” The things we have accomplished already in the last 6 months would have taken us 2 to 3 years to get up and running without her. Anne’s coaching provides that encouragement and accountability to keep us moving forward.”

 

— MaryAnn Keeline, Executive Director, Project Spark Studio

“Anne brought an incredible breadth of knowledge and experience to help us launch our first grantseeking program. She started by assessing what we had, and then quickly prioritized the components we needed to put into place before launching the fundraising program.”

— Lee Raney, Former Board Chair, Grupo Palo Alto

“Working with Anne was truly the best experience. She advised me on board governance, strategic planning, program and operational budgets, and donor management. Anne created a safe space to ask questions and learn best practices within the world of non-profit development. Most importantly she provided technical feedback regarding fundraising methodologies. Thank you Anne!”

— Andrea J Casares, Former Development Director, Austin Region Justice for Our Neighbors
