For over 15 years, I have worked with nonprofit organizations both large and small. Some of my clients have included Planned Parenthood Los Angeles, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Los Angeles, Idyllwild Arts Academy, KCET, and Huntington Medical Research Institutes. I believe that a healthy database, clearly documented policies and procedures, and effective reports are vital to the success of any fundraising operation. I am adept at getting to know an organization’s fundraising model and reporting needs, then delivering effective solutions, concrete documentation and impactful reports. My specializations include:• Evaluating data quality and creating plans for data scrubbing, database cleanup and optimization.• Setting and documenting policies and procedures for all aspects of advancement services operations, including importing new data, gift entry, stewardship and prospect management.• Optimizing database use through training for all user levels: beginners, new database staff, database managers, advanced "power users", frontline fundraisers, and the executive office.• Creating key reports to help project and track fundraising goals, and track stewardship and cultivation activities.• Building customized, effective prospect management systems.• Assessing advancement services staffing needs.• Importing large volumes of data.
