 During the past 25 years I have helped scores of non-profit organizations experience dramatic fund-raising growth by improving the manner in which they identify, cultivate and solicit individual and institutional prospects. I am willing to provide fund-raising advice to colleges, social service agencies, hospitals, and cultural organizations.

 I can answer questions on Charity Registration and Planned Giving. The former is the web of state laws that non-profits have to comply with before they solicit donations in a state. Each state (and D.C.) has its own rules. Planned Giving is raising money from donors' estate plans. The simplest example is a charitable bequest in someone's will. Other types of gifts include life insurance, charitable trusts, charitable annuities, retirement and pension plans, and real estate.

 I have over ten years experience in fundraising, and have helped organizations raise millions of dollars. My passion is to help small organizations tackle the big job of setting up and maintaining a fundraising and development structure that gets big results. Having lived and worked on the island of Martha's Vineyard, I have a unique perspective on those organizations facing the special challenges of fundraising in a seasonal community. I can answer questions about annual campaigns, major donors, institutional fundraising, development planning, strategic planning and board training.
