At Sound Fundraising Strategies, we are passionate about partnering with small nonprofit teams. We understand the unique challenges these organizations face and are dedicated to helping them thrive. Our Fractional Fundraising services offer the perfect blend of strategic planning and hands-on implementation, enabling small nonprofits to level up and build diverse, sustainable revenue generation systems.
We're on a mission to redefine what the role of a 'Fundraiser' looks like, both for fundraising professionals and organizations seeking to hire them. Through our innovative approach, we aim to create more flexible, efficient, and effective fundraising solutions that benefit both nonprofits and fundraising professionals.
Redefining Fundraising
Our Mission
We envision a world where all charities and nonprofit organizations have the funds they need to drive their missions forward. By reimagining fundraising roles and strategies, we're working to make this vision a reality, ensuring that every worthy cause has the resources to make a lasting impact.
Empowering Nonprofits
Our Vision
The Foundation of Our Work
Our Core Values
We see opportunities to learn everywhere. Embracing a beginner mindset, we are comfortable with unlearning and rethinking approaches, frequently asking “why not?” as we explore new possibilities.
Fail Forward
We take a step back to understand how things are connected. This applies to people, relationships, and networks; it also applies to systems. We use leading-edge technology to build sustainable, efficient systems. We invest time in streamlining processes to expand capacity.
Systems Focused
Relationships are our greatest asset. We believe in partnerships - win-win relationships that embody mutual benefit. We are community-centric. We celebrate the achievements of others. We recognize and appreciate the differences of others, knowing that it’s those differences that make us stronger together.
Connection and Community
Inclusion, diversity, equity. Fairness and justice. We make thoughtful decisions about how we want to show up in the world and investing in social impact organizations is part of that. We take accountability for our decisions (both successes and failures) and value transparency and humility.
Mindful Service
We operate with an abundance mindset. We are optimists. We see the potential in others and give the benefit of the doubt. We have faith in the generosity of humankind.
Abundance
Endless curiosity. Experimentation. We are creative problem solvers and innovators. We make space each day for thinking and staying open to inspiration.
