I’ve had the joy of receiving coaching and mentorship from Kenna while taking on a leadership role within my organization and navigating a period of significant transition on my team. During this period of growth, learning, and restructuring, Kenna has provided me with invaluable guidance and support. In addition to sharing her decades of experience and expertise on fundraising strategy, Kenna has also taken the time and thought to get to know me as a person, empower my professional goals and development, and nurture my ability to work towards a healthy work-life balance. Thanks to Kenna, I have been able to implement concrete new approaches and activities in my work, while building my confidence and skills as a leader and fundraising professional. In short, I highly recommend working with Kenna.
Nicole A., interim director of development for a social service agency
Kenna is the best fundraising coach I know for small nonprofits. With her proposal-writing guidance we raised over $40,000 in start-up mode, enabling us to launch our after-school program. Her advice about event-related fundraising and board development was right-on. I recommend her highly.
Ronald Jarrett, JD, former CEO of an arts nonprofit
In just the first year we worked together, Kenna helped me raise over $500,000 for the Information Society Project at Yale Law School. She understands the fundraising process thoroughly and her guidance about relating to donors was invaluable.
