How I help NGOs
Do you need to raise more money for your organization´s world-changing work but are struggling because your team doesn’t have the dedicated time, isn´t sure if it should focus on individual donors or grants (or maybe investors), isn’t sure which grant funders are right for you or isn’t sure how to write successful grants?
Have you found that free resources haven’t given you the personalized guidance and support you need?

“I count myself lucky to have met Shoshana when I worked on grants internationally-- I learned SO much from her! Shoshana is a wealth of knowledge and an unparalleled mentor and resource for navigating the grant system. Just 6 months ago I partnered with a Black-led, grassroots nonprofit in Columbus and I have already secured over $100,000 for them. These results are blowing my mind.”

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Grant proposals are approved based on the believability of the applicant, the competition, the technical correctness of the proposal and the story it tells. I get you set on, and am expert at, the last two. The first is up to you (though I will certainly let you know if I spot areas for strengthening here) and the second is unknowable. And it’s similar for the other types of fundraising.
What I can guarantee is this: if we collaborate and you put in the work, you will be well on your way to achieving- and potentially even exceeding -your fundraising goals. -
There is no better time than now to invest in the organizational future you want.

Most NGOs have a limited budget, and it’s normal for investing in your fundraising to feel like a stretch. But here’s the thing: investing in support dramatically increases your chances of hitting your fundraising goals in the long run. Most likely, if you are reading this, your current strategy has not gotten you all the way to your goal. And if you continue on this same path, you will continue to get the same results you have been getting. Investing in your grants team is the fastest way to change that.
Our pricing is designed to be accessible AND we have multiple payment plan options to fit your budget.
I am also happy to do a free, initial strategy session with you. During this session, we will design a simple strategy for you to approach your board and current individual or institutional donors to ask them for the additional resources for this investment. Most funders will be thrilled to support you building your organizational capacity this way! Find a time on my calendar here and select Get Funded Discovery Call (Free).

I developed these specific ways of working together because I wanted to do more with each organization– and reach more organizations –than was possible supporting organizations by the hour.
What I do offer is add-on support for organizations enrolled in Funded with Ease or who already completed it. If that’s what you are looking for, let’s talk!

To ensure that local voices are elevated in the grantee space, I am working hard to make my fundraising support available to historically under-resourced NGOs, by:
Providing support in both English and Spanish.
Having tiered pricing, where I offer a discounted rate to NGOs that are solely based and registered in the global south.
Offering (soon!) a group-based version of the program.
Partnering with funders to make the program available at a nominal fee to historically under-resourced NGOs.
**If you are a funder and would like to support this, please contact me.
