About Friendly Fundraisers
Harvesting Philanthropy with Fundraising Essentials
We begin sowing the seeds of giving by making a gift to the organizations we serve. We do this by offering small and new organizations with limited budgets, affordable fundraising consulting services and campaign coaching. One of the best kept secrets of fundraising is that you don't have to be a fundraiser to raise money for your organization...in other words, everyone in your organization can be a fundraiser with the right tools!​ Let our gift of affordable consulting services help you harvest funding that will produce philanthropic support to sustain your organization for years to come.

Welcome to Friendly Fundraisers!
​
I'm Rachel, the founder and a Certified Fundraising Executive (CFRE) with 15 years of experience in the nonprofit world. My mission is to create a positive impact in our community by supporting small and emerging nonprofits.
​
I was inspired to create Friendly Fundraisers when I took a full-time volunteer fundraising position with a small nonprofit I had grown to love called "Playmakers." Within a few short months, I realized how much of an impact the right tools and guidance can have on new and small organizations. ​
​​The services I provide include comprehensive fundraising planning, crafting compelling cases for support, creating targeted segmentation and solicitation strategies, measuring and reporting impact, just to name a few...Interested in integrating AI into your fundraising? While we start with fundraising basics and essential tools, I will also give you examples of how you can begin exploring artificial intelligence (AI) to take your messaging and strategies to the next level.
​
By providing small and new nonprofits with affordable services, I gain the experience of working with a variety of organizations and their dedicated staff. There is no place you will find more passion than a new or small nonprofit that is eagerly waiting for the help they need to bring their mission and vision to life through philanthropic support.
