Whether for a month or a while, 1-on-1 fundraising coaching is a small investment with a big impact.
Best of all, it’s guaranteed. Get a 100% refund if you’re not happy with our first meeting.
When we meet, we’ll confirm:
- Who will join you—team up with another staff or board member and learn together! (Price is per nonprofit, not per person. You may include anyone you wish.)
- Your preferred schedule—weekly for 30 minutes, or biweekly for 1 hour.
- Your immediate fundraising priorities—and what you need to achieve them.
We know you can’t do this important work alone. Our priorities are your priorities.
You’re not alone
Are you feeling like you’re the only one responsible for funding this year’s budget? Fundraising isn’t a solo sport. But sometimes it can feel that way.
Together we’ll build a culture of philanthropy in your board, prioritize major donors, develop your fundraising strategy, or build and optimize your donor database. Coaching sets you up for success.
Grow gifts. Engage board. Build revenue.
Donor development and board engagement go hand-in-hand. Your board can (and should!) be your superpower in helping you get there. Wherever you are, you’re in the right place to activate your board in cultivating more giving.
Make your donor database and gift entry behave.
Just starting out? Or feeling frustrated that your database isn’t working the way that you want it to? Let’s set up data fields and monthly reports so you can prioritize donors — and your time.
Meet Your Mentors
Melanie Hamburger
Growth & Strategy Coach

Melanie’s decades of experience — from a major gift officer and development director, to a 1-person fundraising team — have taught her what works. She creates ease for your board and staff to fundraise for your nonprofit’s unique goals.
Use Melanie as your personal mentor, thought partner, and sounding board to build revenue.
Sian Romoli
Donor Database Coach
Sian’s superpowers in data and research make her an ideal nonprofit database coach. She will help you create, organize, and optimize gift entry and reports — or migrate to an entirely new database.
Together you’ll build a system that works for you, makes data entry easy, tracks giving, customizes donor outreach, and helps meet fiscal year goals.
Coaching not in your budget? No problem. Let’s talk.
We offer a free 30-minute brainstorm session to talk about your goals and areas for growth. You’re doing amazing work, and we can’t wait to hear about it!
Why work with a fundraising coach?
The answer is simple: focus. Work with Melanie or Sian to focus your scarce time and resources on what works best in building revenue for your nonprofit with whatever time you have available.
In our first meeting, we’ll evaluate your current fundraising goals and challenges. Then we’ll work together to develop custom strategies for long-term growth, share best practices, and provide fundraising tools and templates.
We’re here for you.
