why wise fundraising
We believe that:
Absolute:
​
1. Non-profits make better communities and a better world.
​
2. Fundraising Sytems work better when they work together.
​
Probable:
​
1. The quality of your work and the need for it is tremendous.
​
2. The support it gets is not.
​
Possible:
​
1. At some point, your Non-profit was wounded by a challenge or couldn’t take advantage of a great opportunity.
​
2. Because it didn’t have the resources it deserves.
We want to help you get those resources and support. And maybe even make that process a little bit enjoyable too.
