Funding doesn’t fail randomly. It fails when standards are missing.
I help funders identify organizations worth funding and help nonprofits become organizations that funders trust.
If you’re a nonprofit leader, you already know this truth, even if no one has said it clearly:
You can have a powerful mission and still struggle to raise money.
And if you’re a funder, you’ve probably felt this too:
You’ve funded organizations that looked promising on paper,
but the impact didn’t match the expectation.
I’ve been on both sides of this.
Since 2016, I’ve worked as a founder, board member, coach, and consultant in the nonprofit space. I’ve diagnosed hundreds of organizations, contributed to raising over $5 million, and seen the same patterns repeat again and again.
Funding doesn’t fail because people don’t care.
It fails because fundability isn’t built intentionally.
That’s why I created the Fundability Standard.
What Is the Fundability Standard?
The Fundability Standard is a structured way to evaluate whether an organization can:
• attract funding
• deploy funding responsibly
• sustain impact after funding
• and withstand scrutiny as funding grows
It is not a theory.
It is not motivation.
It is not another checklist.
It is a practical standard built from years of real diagnostics, real boardrooms, real fundraising conversations, and real failures.
Who This Is For
For Funders
If you are a funder, foundation leader, faith-based investor, or grant-making organization, I work with you to:
• assess organizations beyond surface-level applications
• reduce risk before money is deployed
• identify organizations that can scale responsibly
• design screening, interview, and review processes that work
I help you move from hope-based funding to standard-based funding.
For Nonprofits
If you are a nonprofit founder, executive director, or board leader, I work with you to:
• understand why funding has been inconsistent
• see clearly where funders lose confidence
• receive a structured Fundability Assessment
• strengthen the areas holding your organization back
This is not about chasing donors.
It’s about becoming the kind of organization funding flows toward.
Elevate Your Funding Potential
If you’re tired of guessing, hoping, or repeating the same funding cycle, let’s talk. Whether you fund organizations or you lead one, clarity comes before capital.
