Worried about cutting programs and not meeting budget?
Without a proven system, raising money for your nonprofit is stressful and exhausting. After being in the trenches, successfully raising millions, and spending time coaching other nonprofits, I built a 4-step system, called Fundraising Maximized. By understanding and implementing these four areas in your nonprofit business, you’ll increase your chance of fundraising success. This system helps you raise more money than you ever thought possible. You, and those you serve, don’t have to worry about cutting programs and budget. Instead, you can expand your programs and make a even bigger difference in your community and in the lives of others.

Nancy was super helpful in providing a roadmap toward effective development for the Fab Foundation. She is a great model as a CEO and gave me confidence as I explored fundraising opportunities and learned the language of development.
Nancy is more about results than she is about advice. She is a delightful person, very authentic in how she builds relationships. I believe anyone working with Nancy will gain confidence and enthusiasm for their cause. Nancy is genuinely interested in the success of the people and the projects she chooses.
My biggest success is feeling more confident in what I’m doing. I’m not dreading the asks anymore. I know I will get better the more I practice, but this course helped me build a good foundation to start our major gifts program.
