services
The below services are offered to non-profit agencies, government agencies, and communities to improve their ability to achieve their goals.
Grant Proposal Writer
Thanks to the Internet, this is a service that I can offer to nonprofits throughout the country. I will produce 12 inquiries or proposals per week for $500. This service is scalable to match your budget.
Since 1994, I have written successful proposals for corporate, foundation, and local, state, and federal government grants.
I will identify and research information about prospective funders at the local, state, and national level.
I will research statistics and narratives that support the need for your proposed services.
I will help you design your program and write your proposals.
Fundraising
Since 1985, I have helped local, state, national, and international nonprofit agencies obtain cash and in-kind contributions through special events, annual fund drives, direct mail, capital campaigns, major gifts, and planned giving.
I will work with you to create an annual fundraising calendar to maximize your agency’s ability to identify, research, inform, involve, solicit, and thank individual donors.
This calendar will include a manageable number of mailings, special events, and communications with donors and prospects through new and traditional media.
I will also help develop the ability of your staff and volunteers to cultivate donors within the ranks of their families, friends, co-workers, and colleagues in churches and civic groups.
Board, Staff, and Volunteer Development
I will move your organization away from being a hostile work environment, through reactivity, and toward becoming a proactive learning organization with evidence-based accountability.
I will begin with interviews with board members, staff, other volunteers, key donors, and other stakeholders.
With this information, I will prepare training and technical assistance materials that will drive the creation and implementation of a plan to move your agency from where you are to where you want to be.
Volunteer Recruitment and Management
I will help your organization recruit, screen, train, evaluate, and appreciate your volunteers.
Unpaid staff members leverage the work of the staff of our agencies many times over, but volunteers are not free. Volunteers need to know what we want them to do, how to do what we want them to do, when we want them to do it, and why it is important.
