Heidi truly cares about our charity and about us. Her team is dedicated and kind. I don't know how we managed without them!

Heidi: I am an internationally Certified Fund Raising Executive (CFRE) and as CEO of GreenKite Fundraising I work with a range of nonprofit clients here and abroad. Clients hire me to coach their board members, CEOs and Development Directors. My team and I go "all in" to partner with nonprofits on their capital campaigns, year-end fundraising and overall development opertions. I am a former Assistant Governor for Rotary International and serve on several nonprofit boards. Let's connect: https://www.linkedin.com/in/heidi-webb/
Jennifer is always optimistic. She lends a great deal of corporate experience to the team, and is our "go to" when it comes to development audits.

Jennifer: As a seasoned marketing strategist, I have worked across multiple disciplines in a variety of industries, from home building to theme parks to higher education. This broad range of experiences enables her to uncover hidden resources that when tapped, lead to better outcomes for clients. I'm a member of the National Society of Leadership and Success as well as the greater Springfield, Ohio, AFP.
I am currently All But a Dissertation for a DBA in Leadership Studies.
Hayley's word is impeccable. She cares about the world, and has an innate ability to discover new opportunities for worthy causes.
Hayley: I’ve been serving the nonprofit community for close to three decades, providing grant writing services and overall strategic development consulting for nonprofit clients through my own firm or as a member of the GreenKite Fundraising team. I deeply invest in the mission of each client and in our work together, seek to help organizational leaders conceptualize and achieve their goals, strengthen operations, amplify their reach and achieve meaningful change.
