"Sean Kosofsky’s lecture on the basics of fundraising was incredibly informative. Not only did he touch on tried-and-true methods, Sean also discussed new platforms that organizations can leverage to increase participation in their campaigns."
Timos Pietris, Office of President, Long Island Univ.

“Sean is the best - he is so good at supporting nonprofits because he cares deeply about their success. Sean is unique and special because he not only offers advice that is so helpful but he is simultaneously running a nonprofit himself at the same time - so he really knows what it means to make a difference in this world.”

"Fundraising is based on making sure you understand the big picture and then get some small details right. It is also based on not being afraid to make an “ask”. Sean Kosofsky’s book is a great refresher on tools to raise money. I would recommend it to all non-profits."
Anthony, Elected Official, Canada

I have been the Executive Director for 5 nonprofits.
I have reported to boards.
I have served on boards.

I have been where you are. I have the battle scars. I know what it’s like to be burned out, stretched thin, and struggling to raise the money to keep my nonprofit solvent.
Fundraising does not need to be stressful or complicated, but it does mean learning some key strategies that will grow your organization over time.
I will demonstrate what I have done myself during this training.
I have raised millions of dollars for causes, campaigns, and candidates. I know how to do it as a volunteer board member. I have read the academic research on what works and what doesn’t to motivate boards to fundraise.
