I will always have your best interest at heart. We won’t be successful if I:
Convince you that fundraising is easy, cheap or fast
Guarantee that I can bring you donors that you don’t already know. It’s important to recognize that fundraisers play a vital role in nurturing and building relationships for their organizations. These relationships remain with the organization, not the fundraiser. For more information on fundraising ethics, please visit: Code of Ethical Standards | Association of Fundraising Professionals (afpglobal.org)
Base your goals on just data alone, as the art is in deepening relationships and bringing donors closer
My Promises To You
I will always tell you the truth (even if no one else has before)! I will be your partner in the critical work of:
Building the foundation for fundraising, as it’s critical to long-term success
Implementing a culture of philanthropy (Fundraising is everyone’s job, not just the development team’s.)
Evaluating your relationships, not just your data
Stewarding your relationships now… and for years to come
