I would highly recommend Poonam Prasad for your fundraising counsel and consulting needs. Poonam was originally retained to research and design an individual giving campaign centered around key Project FIND events. When the pandemic hit and we had to readjust our fundraising repertoire for the year, Poonam pivoted and focused her service provision to advising on ways we could instead meet our goals in an online and virtual environment. The end result of our work with Poonam was that Project FIND not only met but well exceeded its yearly individual giving targets. Additionally, through my work with Poonam, I now have a toolbox of helpful ideas, strategies and information that I gained from our meetings which covered a multitude of fundraising topics and tasks. She is truly multitalented with knowledge on all aspects of fundraising. I can’t say enough about Poonam and her terrific team.

Back in 2006/2007, I took a course on Prospect Research with Poonam where I acquired invaluable knowledge and research skills that I use frequently today. Through her clear instruction and subtle humor, I learned how to think critically and gain perspective in determining a prospect's capacity and inclination to give. In addition, Poonam stressed the importance of being resourceful and that most information is free and right at your finger tips. Since then, I've continued to use her investigative approach to build portfolios in various positions and feel that I could always contact her for feedback when needed.
