Who is giving and why – how you raise money – how people give – and how you engage, solicit and steward your donors – are all undergoing BIG change.
Competition for donor dollars is fierce. Technology makes it super easy to give to causes whether local or halfway around the world. More smart, capable people of multiple generations want to contribute and get involved, and they don’t just want to write checks.
Whether you are raising millions or hundreds of dollars, Mary B. Schaefer can help you clarify your needs, craft a compelling case for support, and bring a fresh approach to meet growing needs in a changing world.
Mary Schaefer is a principal at Cornerstone Fundraising that offers more than three decades of fundraising experience. We use time-tested approaches, of course, but we also track and draw on the latest creative approaches that are reaping success in the changing world of fundraising across the country.
We can serve as thinking partners or as an extension of your staff – managing your fundraising practices, growing your donor base, freshening your annual appeal, conducting a feasibility study, launching a campaign or coaching your staff and board.
