"Shoshana is a powerhouse within the granting landscape. She is strategic, deeply experienced, and beyond effective in helping organizations identify funding opportunities and make their case in a powerful way. I cannot recommend her highly enough."

If you had been on my most recent thought partnership call with a global, Europe-based NGO, here is some of what you would have heard:

"Amazing. Thank you for that. …. That's super helpful, Shoshana. … That's such a great framing.... I love that.... That’s a great reframe. … That is brilliant. I love it."

“I've lived most of my life with the assumption-- the story -- that some people are just good at fundraising and some people are not, and that it's a function of personality or life experiences or privileges. But this is demystifying it for me.
