David has given me the tools to boost donor giving by 100% over the previous year!  I truly believe that this is only a start. In addition, David genuinely cares about me and the ministry we provide to the leg disabled of Kenya. I made a very smart choice in engaging David Oaks as my coach.

Why Get a Fundraising Coach?

If you’re looking to raise more money this year, you might want to consider hiring a fundraising coach. 

Most fundraisers are on their own.

They live in a fog when it comes to fundraising. They have to figure out how to engage with donors with limited time and few resources.

Who pays? The beneficiaries to your mission don't get what they need; You and your staff live under paid and exhausted.

A simulated faceless person.

Nonprofit leaders don't have time to study fundraising.

A coach can help save you time and make the most of your resources—as well as help you raise more funds.  What worked yesterday doesn't work today. Since Covid EVERYTHING has changed:

  • Social media

  • Websites

  • Getting new donors

  • Keeping old donors

  • Appeals

  • Newsletters

When you don't know how to fundraise you hate it.

When you are forced to do something that you don't know how to do, you start hating it. When you hate fundraising you live with:

  • Fear of failure

  • Uncertainty

  • Perceived incompetence

  • Energy drain

  • Looking incompetent

  • No comfort zone

  • Imposter syndrome

We raised more money in our first one month campaign than we raised in the entire year prior to working with David. We are extremely grateful for the results and having the opportunity to improve our knowledge on the best practices in fundraising

The smartest man in the world compared chasing money to chasing birds:

Don't exhaust yourself acquiring wealth; be smart enough to stop.

When you fix your gaze on it, it's gone, for it sprouts wings for itself and flies to the sky like an eagle.

Proverbs of Solomon, 23:4-5

You don't chase birds; you attract them.

You don't chase money; you attract it.

Visionary Fundraising: Stop Chasing & Start Attracting the Money You Need

Because of his guidance, we became confident and were able to increase the amount of money we raised by 40%. There is just something about the way he interacts with us that makes us feel like family rather than a client.
