YFJ Consulting, LLC - Expertise in Fundraising, Special Events and Philanthropic Counsel.

I was so pleased that we asked Yolanda to write the case statement for the campaign to strengthen our school’s STEAM program! She held two focus groups with our stakeholders, and thanks to her excellent facilitation of those conversations we learned vital information about what they thought was important, which changed the nature of our proposal.

With a strong case statement grounded in our vision and our community members’ priorities, we were able to raise 75% of our goal within six months before the pandemic forced us to pause active fundraising.

What I needed and got from Yolanda was clear direction for setting and meeting my near-term fundraising goals. The unanticipated bonus is how Yolanda’s process has made me a more creative and effective fundraiser.

I am so impressed by Yolanda’s expertise in fundraising and events management, that I honestly believe she has the ability to run a small country!
