Fundraising Rescue

When revenue stalls and the usual sources aren't coming through, you don't have a year to wait. Fundraising Rescue is a fast, focused intervention — a clear read on what's going wrong and a roadmap to wins you can land in the short term.

01Fractional Executive Services

Senior leadership in the seat, the moment you need it.

When a key leader departs or a campaign outgrows your current capacity, the work can't simply pause. I step in at the C-suite level — as an interim executive director, chief development or advancement officer, or campaign director — to hold momentum, steady the team, and keep revenue moving while you plan your next permanent hire.

Drawn from years of senior executive leadership across mission-driven organizations.

What's included

  • Interim executive leadership of revenue and external-relations functions
  • Board reporting, engagement, and governance support through the transition
  • Team leadership, mentoring, and stability for staff during change
  • Donor, partnership, and campaign strategy kept on track — not on hold
  • A clean handoff that sets up your next permanent leader to succeed

Best when

  • A leadership seat is open and the search will take months
  • You're mid-campaign and need senior horsepower now
  • Rapid growth has outpaced your current structure
The outcomeMomentum maintained, no lost fundraising year, and a stronger team handed back.

02Fundraising Strategy & Execution

A current, fundable strategy — and the help to run it.

The fundraising landscape has shifted, and the model that carried you here may not carry you forward. This engagement starts with an honest look at where you stand, builds a strategy designed for long-term sustainability, and — where the model needs to change — guides the operational pivot to new streams of income.

Backed by 30+ years in the field and more than $100M secured over a career.

What's included

  • A SWOT analysis of your current and past fundraising performance
  • Donor and revenue analysis to find what's working and what's leaking
  • A strategic plan built for sustainability, not just this quarter
  • Campaign feasibility, donor strategy, and major & principal gift planning
  • Revenue diversification and operations guidance for new income streams
  • Board and stakeholder engagement to carry the plan forward

Best when

  • Familiar funding is thinning and the model needs to change
  • You're planning or pressure-testing a campaign
  • You need a credible plan funders and boards will trust
The outcomeA clear-eyed picture, a sustainable plan, and hands-on support turning it into revenue.

03Mediation & Conflict Resolution

Turn friction into decisions, not damage.

Unresolved tension on a board or team quietly drains the energy a mission depends on. As a neutral, formally trained facilitator, I help organizations work through conflict directly — surfacing the real issues, restoring working relationships, and moving a stuck group back to clear, shared decisions.

Grounded in a Master of Science in Negotiation and Conflict Resolution from Creighton University School of Law, and years of board-level conflict-resolution experience.

What's included

  • Neutral facilitation of difficult board and staff conversations
  • Structured resolution of conflict that's stalling progress
  • Governance alignment when leadership is pulling in different directions
  • Support restoring trust and working relationships after a rough season
  • A path back to clear, shared decision-making

Best when

  • Board or staff tension is stalling the mission
  • Leadership disagreement is blocking key decisions
  • A transition or merger has left friction behind
The outcomeDisagreement becomes direction, and the team can move forward together.
