What Our Clients Say...

I'll admit it. My passion isn't raising funds for my nonprofit. I know it's important - but I was trained to be a counselor - not a fundraiser. But then The Nonprofit Consulting Shop showed up! Ready Set Fundraise is a powerful fundraising tool that was not only easy to understand, but easy to execute - even as a one man team. It has changed the game for my nonprofit. And they can do it for yours as well.
~ John T.

The Nonprofit Consulting Shop came highly recommended. They provide innovative ideas, as well as the tools that were key to us achieving our goals. Ready, Set, Fundraise is a must-have for any nonprofit.
~Sheila E.
