Nonprofit Nation with Julia Campbell
Business:Non-Profit
This episode is a replay to celebrate the launch of Rhea's new book, Get That Money, Honey!: The No-Bullsh*t Guide to Raising More Money For Your Nonprofit!
Do you ever feel icky asking for money - or just downright scared? Does this prevent you from raising the amount of money you need for your nonprofit? There may be emotional and mental blocks that hold you back from being an effective fundraiser.
In this episode, Rhea Wong joins me to drop some "truth bombs" about fundraising mindset and gives us some strategies to help us get over the limiting beliefs, assumptions, and stories that are holding us back from reaching our true potential.
Over a 12 year period as the Executive Director of Breakthrough New York, Rhea grew their fundraising program from about 200K per year to $3M in 100% private donations annually. This included funding from institutional foundations, corporations, events, and individuals.
Rhea made all the mistakes so you don’t have to. Now she is on a quest to teach others what it takes to succeed - because the world cannot wait for important change.
Rhea's e-newsletter is one that I read every single week (check it out for adorable photos of her lasa apso Stevie Wonderdog), and her podcast and free weekly trainings are a must-have resource for fundraisers.
Here are some of the topics we discussed:
A Rhea Wong quotable: "It's only weird if you make it weird."
