“Last year we raised $112K. Now, with year-end gifts still rolling in, we have exceeded $350K! And I cannot tell you what that has meant for our mission.

As the year draws to a close, I wanted to tell you how very much I have appreciated your wisdom, support, cheerleading, guidance, and experience. I still have so much to learn, but I am better equipped than ever.”

Indira, Director of Development

“Gail Perry’s Major Gifts Coaching program was both practical and inspirational! Participating has helped us think about our major gifts fundraising in a new way, and given us the tools to move forward.

She provided a solid, step-by-step approach to major gifts fundraising that we could customize for our organization. And, we are now on target to raise much, much more in major gifts as a result of this program!

Gail encourages participants to be well-prepared but unafraid to move outside of their comfort zones to try new approaches. She offers a lot of personal attention.”

Liz Hennrikus, Senior Director of Development, American Rivers

“We raised over $400k this year in the program! No more donor fatigue!

It was wonderful to have direct access to Gail and get direct and personal feedback. I feel like I am getting supported in a personal way, and the advice was really targeted to my personal situation.”
