A Member Community of Fundraisers & Nonprofit Leaders

Let’s Unlock Your Potential & Skyrocket Your Fundraising Results

A few of the amazing organizations I’ve had the privilege of training

Welcome to a community that's all about you, the fundraiser. In a world where fundraising can feel like a solo journey, we're here to change that narrative. We invite you to be a part of something bigger, something transformative. Whether you're taking your first steps in fundraising or you're a seasoned pro aiming to reach new heights, navigating the evolving landscape of fundraising can be a daunting task. Doubts can hold you back, but when a member of the Fundraising Transformers community, you'll get the training, support and guidance you need to conquer these challenges. Let's dive into how being a part of the Transformers community can ignite your growth as a fundraiser.

Does this sound like you?

You’ve tried everything like attending conference sessions, multiple webinars, and reading countless blog posts but you're still stuck. You're feeling tired, overwhelmed, and like you just can't get ahead.

You often feel all alone and overstretched. You long for someone who can help guide you — someone who has been there — keep you motivated, and help push you forward so you can take your fundraising to the next level.

You’re tired of wasting time, money, and energy on strategies and tools that give you zero results. Not to mention the lack of alignment between your leadership and board on your development priorities.

You have no one to turn to. Someone who can answer your burning questions. Who understands what it takes to build and manage a thriving fundraising program using relevant and innovative strategies, and best practices.

What if I told you there was a better way?

Imagine if it were possible. Imagine what it will feel like when you’ve achieved your fundraising goals. Imagine a private space where fundraisers from around the world unite to exchange ideas and share lessons learned — a place where courage and commitment to growth are celebrated. Transformers is not just a community; it's a professional haven for you to refine your skills and reach unprecedented fundraising success.

Community has never been more important

Embrace the Power of Community

In times of transformation, Community is more important than ever. Community is your anchor. A group of people mastering something interesting or meaningful together is the single best way to navigate rapid change, take on the challenges of the moment, and unlock the ability for you and your team to achieve results and transformation none of us can get on our own.

Join hands with fellow fundraisers and nonprofit leaders who understand your journey intimately. The Transformers community is built by fundraisers, for fundraisers, offering the motivation and accountability you need to break through barriers and elevate your fundraising efforts.

FAQ

  • So, here's the thing.

    If you’ve attended any of our conference sessions, you know we’re usually big on sharing. But, when it comes to sharing any of our “paid” content or products (e.g., Fundraising Transformers member training classes and coaching videos, masterclasses, downloadable tools, helpful resources, webinars, content, etc.) with non-members or members at a different Fundraising Transformers membership level, that's a no, no.

    Nope, nada, no can do. ☝️

    The one exception: If you received free passes with your purchase, then you may share those passes as outlined with your membership level.

    Sharing any Fundraising Transformers member content with non-members is strictly prohibited (our lawyer made us put that in).

    Instead, we ask that you encourage your colleagues to Join Fundraising Transformers to gain access to our exclusive, members-only content and resources.

    Thank you 🙏 for supporting our no-sharing policy!
