Testimonials

Over the years I have been most fortunate to teach some amazing fundraising professionals and students. I must say that I often learn as much from them as they do from me. Following are some of their comments.

I have attended fundraising conferences for years and rarely see anything that is new and helpful. However, I learned a lot from John’s impressive presentation. Great stuff!

One of the best sessions I have ever attended … addressed real challenges with practical demonstrated solutions.

Excellent instructor, excellent material, really applicable and practical coursework.

This course proved extremely useful in how to effectively communicate your cause to donors. The tutor was very thorough and helpful, allowing time to examine and critique each of our case statements.

(John’s workshop) was so informative, engaging and useful content! Loved it!

He is really good. I had him in class at the Festival of Fundraising and he understood his audience very well. I think is a very useful and brilliant speaker fi you want something NOT theoretical, but very practical.” (Valerio Melandri, Coordinator, Festival del Fundraising, Italy)
