Turn your mission statement into action…

Times are changing for nonprofit organizations. With the drop in the stock market, foundations are given smaller grants to fewer organizations. Much of corporate giving remains diverted to relief funding. Workplace giving, like United Way, has seen a decrease in support. Government funding in Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia saw significant cuts in 2002.

Lynn O'Connell & Associates is designed to meet your needs as you work to position your organization for success in these changing times. How can you make your organization stand out above others seeking funds? What steps can you take to ensure that your fundraising is successful? Let me work with you to develop a unique approach for your unique needs.
