Budgets: love them, loathe them, fear them--they are an unavoidable part of fundraising. And they don't have to be dreaded. If done well, the annual budget process can help your organization align on priorities, set clear goals, and plan ahead for future years.
Fundraising veterans Erica O'Brien and Courtney Lewis have helped clients budget better for decades. Now, at Fuse Fundraising (formerly MindSet Direct), they continue to support everything from integrated direct response programs, to the optimization of high-value and monthly-giving programs.
