Consulting Clients say:

“We are a small new nonprofit and in July of 2013, we hired Mazarine as a fundraising consultant for our nonprofit organization. Here's what she helped us do:

We launched our monthly donor program in 2013, and with her help, our donors felt so recognized and appreciated that we went from 4 donors to now 36 as of 2015!

With Mazarine's training, we were able to get our first fundraising event sponsored 100%, and we raised almost $10,000 with 67 registered runners!

We increased our donors thanks to Mazarine's training and resources. I went from having 37 donors to almost 100 donors year to date! Our major donor revenue actually increased 50%!

Last but not least, for the last two years Mazarine has helped me write our end of the year annual appeal, because of her we meet our fundraising goal for our appeals every year!

If you are considering her services for your end of the year annual appeal, fundraising consulting, sponsorships, or donor acquisition please consider her. She is well worth every penny and your bottom line will THANK YOU! You will receive ROI on your investment I promise you! ”

-Kenita Pierce-Lewis, CEO, H.O.P.E. Inc, Georgia.

Since I first stumbled across your “Wild Woman Fundraising,” I have wanted to be in touch with you. Like so many of my colleagues–I think especially my women colleagues–in fundraising, we’re running at a thousand miles and hour and want someone to come alongside us to tell us we aren’t crazy, we’re making progress on doing the right things, we are making a difference. Thank you for playing that role for me.

I have 33 years of non-profit fundraising experience. I earned my Certified Fund Raising Executive designation in 1991. Thanks for bringing what you do to the rest of us. Your resources, your presence, your personal stories, the successes and opportunities you share are very meaningful to me. Please keep doing what you are doing!

Blessings to you in your important work,

–Ruth E. Messick CFRE, Vice President of Gift Planning and Public Relations

I get such joy out of helping many different kinds of causes succeed. This is truly my calling, and I cannot wait to connect with you. I’m passionate about teaching people how to change the world.

I am the author of The Wild Woman’s Guide to Fundraising. My second book is The Wild Woman’s Guide to Social Media, published 2012, given a 5 star rating by Nonprofit.About.com. My latest book, Get the Job! Your Fundraising Career Empowerment Guide, was given a 5 star review by Nonprofit.About.com.

Fundraising background: In 2000 I was an intern for Planned Parenthood Federation of America. In 2003 I wrote my first grants for Indonesian nonprofit Yayasan Emmanuel. In 2005 I co-founded a nonprofit called “The Moon Balloon Project” on the south shore of Boston, MA. Since that time I raised over $1M for various local, national, and international nonprofits with appeals, emails, grants, sponsorships, and more. And via my trainings to thousands of nonprofits all over the world since 2010, I have helped people raise millions more.

From 2012 to 2015 alone I trained over 12,000 nonprofit professionals to succeed. I would love to train your group to succeed in fundraising.

Attendees say

"Within four hours of soaking in all of your wonderful lessons and advice, I was able to empower someone to bring in a hefty item for one of the Silent Auctions, and secure a major score of my own.

Better yet, using what I had learned within the prior twelve hours, I was able to put together a variety of sponsorship packages for a recently-revealed connection in an industry you mentioned AND

"Wow!", I not only secured a $1,500 sponsorship for a specific need, but just found out that we received a $15,000 sponsorship, as well. I'd say that's a darned good return on one webinar! Thanks a million!"
-Judi DeSouter, Director of Advancement at Catholic Elementary Development Partners, New York, NY

"Your How to Write Stunning Appeal Letters webinar was sooooo good! Thanks so much for the best training in years. Clear. Concise. Real world examples. Great pace. Loved it!" -Julie Nations, Executive Director, The Ellie Fund
