A year of fundraising consulting follows as organizations are guided through creating and implementing strategic development plans.Managed a partnership between IU faculty and staff and local Suncoast region nonprofits to offer virtualinternships for IU students funded through TPF.Surveyed and conversed with funders from the Suncoast to better understand their capacity-building efforts and help inform The Patterson Foundation’s offerings. Ten funders with a combined asset value of $1.2 billion participated in the interviews. Once the interviews were completed, a report of key findings was crafted and shared locally and beyond.
