I advise organizations on relationship building strategies before "the ask."

Affinity Blueprint advises organizations on community engagement and relationship building strategies to drive increased participation, volunteerism, philanthropy and belonging. Nonprofit Boards are often known for setting ambitious goals for fundraising without recognizing the overlooked investment needed to cultivate authentic relationships prior to making any ask. Janet B. Rossbach, Founder and Chief Engagement Officer of Affinity Blueprint, offers to meet with nonprofit organizations leadership to explore how to make the most of staff and board member time to cultivate prospective, next-gen, and low-level donors, volunteers, friends, and other community members so that when it is time to make "the ask," individuals feel suitably engaged and glad to support your cause.
