Get your board members involved in raising money and in building your organization's fundraising strategy and system.
The Board That Plans Fundraising Together, Raises Money Together
That's what we want to help you accomplish with The Board Fundraising Game.
Play The Fundraising Game With Your Board.
Imagine going into your next board meeting with every board member prepared to discuss who should fund your organization's mission, how to raise money from them, and the role they can personally play in helping your organization reach its fundraising goal.
Now imagine ending that meeting with a fundraising strategy you all developed and agreed to execute together.
That's exactly what The Fundraising Game helps you do.
We've put together the questions, the group meeting platform, and the facilitation guidance you need to make this happen.
You can lead the entire process yourself, even if you're not a fundraising professional.
And at the end, your organization receives the fundraising strategy you and your board members agreed on.
Now Imagine What Happens After That Board Meeting.
✔️ Your board members now know who your organization's ideal funding audiences are.
✔️ They understand why those audiences should support your mission.
✔️ They know where to look for potential funders and how your organization intends to attract them.
✔️ They understand the process you've agreed to use to raise money, including what to ask for and how much.
✔️ And they know the role they've personally agreed to play.
Now they can begin looking within their own networks, relationships, and communities to identify people who fit the funding audiences you've adopted.
They can begin contributing to the fundraising activities you agreed on.
And when you meet again, you have an actual fundraising strategy to guide your discussions about progress.
Your Board Members Don't Have to Be Fundraising Experts.
They just need to be willing to think about who should fund your mission and how they could help your organization reach those people.
The Fundraising Game provides the questions that help them think through those opportunities.
And when it's time to meet, we'll provide the platform and facilitation guidance to help you discuss their recommendations and agree on a strategy.
You can guide your own board through the process.
If you need assistance, you can ask for help from your workspace.
About Rooney A.
My name is Rooney A. My mission is to help you raise money exponentially. And maybe transform your board while doing so.
So far, I've contributed to raising over m based on my strategy and the fundraising assets I create. I've also trained hundreds of nonprofit leaders and fundraisers on sustainable fundraising.
The number one reason most organizations struggle to raise money is their fundraising strategy or approach. Once you get it right, with a little focus, time, and resource investment, you will begin to see the returns in no time.
Let's build your strategy together with your board.
“Working with Rooney has inspired myself and my board members to continue going forward with the mission. Each member understands the overall mission and how they play a critical role in going forward. For much of the time as the Founder and Executive Director I came to a point where I felt stuck. Rooney was able to strategically help Bless It Solutions map out a plan where each board members are able to take charge in their area of expertise. He was also able to get the board members engaged and ready to help make an impact in our community. We are all so grateful for the opportunity for the board retreat which was much needed.”

“I was running on fumes, trying to fundraise, manage a full-time job, and build a board all by myself. Rooney's fundraising system changed everything. Not only did we successfully recruit our new board, but we now have volunteers focused on specific areas, from social media to direct fundraising. I now spend less time weekly managing the structure, and the mission finally has momentum. I stopped drowning and started leading. This is the game-changer I always wanted.”

“We were unsure as to raising money in these modern times for our nonprofit organization focused on preventing veteran suicide through canine companionship. Rooney gave us valuable fundraising insight and created a simple and organized fundraising plan I and my team can follow to raise money for our mission. Many Blessings Rooney, we appreciate you.”

“Rooney is our consultant at Community Thrive a nonprofit to help youth become independent. I waisted 6 months not knowing what I don't know before I hired him as a consultant. We accomplished in 4 months a board, a volunteer program currently staffed with & volunteers, a strategic plan for funding and too much to share. If you are on the fence, reach out to me. I would be happy to tell you why you can't afford not to hire him.”
