Grow Your Funding
Without Growing Your Staff

See How I Can Help

As the leader of an early stage or small nonprofit, you have an ambitious vision for change. You need to raise funds to reach your vision but lack time or expertise. Hiring permanent fundraising staff isn’t feasible right now — too time consuming and expensive, especially during uncertain times.

So, how can you get the help you need to raise funds right now?

Introducing, Your Virtual Development Director

Here’s what I can do for you

 

  • Build (or reboot) your fundraising strategy so you’re positioned to achieve your most ambitious dreams and plans

  • Give you access to top fundraising talent without increasing your headcount, and for less than you’d pay a full-time junior fundraiser

  • Provide you with the ongoing, hands-on support to get the job done, on a part time basis

Book a complimentary consultation to see if a virtual development director is right for you.

Here’s How We’ll Work Together

 

Build

Together we’ll build a simple fundraising strategy that is tailored to your organization’s strengths.

Support

I’ll stick around to help with the legwork of implementing the plan, serving as an advisor, coach and doer-behind-the-scenes.

Shine

You’ll do what only YOU can do: enlisting philanthropic partners. I’ll make sure you shine in your inspirational role.

“Working with Ruth has transformed my approach to fundraising. Before working with Ruth I felt like an outsider in funder spaces. Now I feel prepared and capable of sharing the value of our organization and how our work aligns with the strategic goals of potential funders. We are seeing great progress as a result — doubling our funding in 12 month’s time.”

— Viridiana Carrizales, Co-Founder, Chief Executive Officer, ImmSchools
