Peter F.
FreelancerTop Rated PlusMany nonprofits don’t have a fundraising problem — they have a development leadership gap.
I work with established nonprofit organizations as a fractional Director of Development, helping leadership stabilize revenue, organize fundraising systems, and move from reactive fundraising to planned, sustainable growth.
I do not work on commission or one-off “grant fishing.” My work is best suited for organizations that want structure, clarity, and long-term fundraising capacity.
What I Actually Do
🔸My work is outcome-driven and typically includes:
🔸Designing and overseeing annual fund strategy
🔸Grant pipeline planning, research, and proposal development
🔸Major donor prospecting and leadership-level giving strategy
🔸Case for support and donor-facing messaging
🔸Board and executive-level fundraising guidance
🔸CRM and donor systems organization
I focus on what needs to be built or fixed, not just what needs to be written.
Typical Engagements
I typically work with organizations in one of the following ways:
✅Fractional Director of Development support (monthly)
Ongoing leadership-level support focused on revenue stability, fundraising planning, donor strategy, and organizational clarity.
✅Fundraising stabilization or infrastructure reset (90-day engagement)
A time-bound engagement to organize fundraising systems, clarify priorities, build pipelines, and address gaps limiting growth.
✅Annual fund or campaign planning and execution
Strategy, messaging, timelines, and execution support for annual appeals, Giving Tuesday, and year-end campaigns.
✅Grant pipeline development and submission cycles
Prospect research, calendar development, proposal strategy, and submission management across state, national, and private funders.
✅Major donor and board fundraising strategy
Prospect identification, cultivation planning, and leadership and board engagement support.
How I Work
I work in structured, outcome-driven engagements rather than open-ended task lists. Each engagement is organized around a small number of active priorities, clear deliverables, and regular close-out communication so progress is visible and nothing drifts.
