The Opportunity
When a fundraising professional leaves an organization, or when the development team’s abilities need strengthening to reach ambitious fundraising goals there is an unique opportunity for the organization to pause and evaluate its approach, strategy, and goals. Too often, instead of intentionally and carefully moving forward, leadership may react to these transitions and professional development needs out of fear of losing revenue, relationships, or both. There is the frustration of not knowing where to turn for assistance. The resulting decisions can cause misalignment and setbacks. Raising the Resources brings the expertise, experience, and leadership to position your organization for the future.
Fundraising Expertise
Raising the Resources provides high-level fundraising expertise and leadership to ensure continuity in the fundraising role, while relieving the pressure and allowing sufficient time for transition planning, discussion, stakeholder involvement, and recruitment.
Leadership
Raising the Resources minimizes gaps in leadership, preserves institutional knowledge, and helps maintain operational continuity so that your organization can continue to deliver on its mission through a transition in fundraising leadership.
Plan for the Future
Raising the Resources will work with you to assess and build capacity, create alignment around needs, and prepare a successful environment for your next fundraising leader.
