HEY, I'M SARAH!
I’ve spent the last 20 years diving into the world of nonprofit management and fundraising, and what a fun ride it’s been! From strategic growth planning to running annual and capital campaigns, to grant writing and crafting engaging stewardship programs, I love it all! Nothing beats those aha moments when everything clicks, it’s like magic!
