Does your organization have a diverse portfolio of funding sources? Do you have a team of individuals on your staff, board of directors and from your community who are well trained advocates and champions for your organization? RAINMAKER Consulting's approach to fundraising is based on relationship building. What will it take to create a community surrounding your organization that generates funding sources on an ongoing basis?

Our culture today is infused with a mindset of scarcity. The media constantly tell us that we don't have enough; we don't have enough beauty, love, sleep, money, sex, or material possessions. We need more things! The joy of fundraising is empowering the people around you to think differently. This shift in thinking enlivens individuals and brings abundance to your organization.

How can we feel grateful for what we have, regardless of what we own? When we acknowledge the abundance in our lives, we become more generous and giving. This can translate into fundraising breakthroughs for your organization.

Your philosophy and attitude about money will have an impact on your organization. Developing strong skills in relationship building, donor strategizing and cultivation, administration and infrastructure, and soliciting financial support are all important components of a successful fundraising program.
