Redwolf's Nonprofit Strategies
Resources

Books to save you anywhere from several hundred to thousands of dollars in consultants fees (how to become your own expert so you do not need to hire consultants as often). Best of all - you can pass the knowledge on to your future staff, board, and volunteers.

Please read about organizational changes we are currently undergoing, located on the "meet the team" page, prior to contacting us about consultation or project management as our founder, Patricia Birgen-Redwolf, is battling an illness that will require transferring all business referrals to associates.
NonProfit Resources:

*Your local Secretary of State Corporations & Charities Division really  is your best friend. Take advantage of all the FREE resources they offer to learn how to ensure compliance. If in doubt - first check their website then just pick up the phone and call them. You need not give your name nor that of your organization when asking for "how to" or the inevitable "I have a friend who....." advice or clarity about an issue you are having.

A bunch of friends and a few clients have these gadgets and find them to be superb ways to show off your program while capturing the attention of potential new donors.  When you have minimum table space at a convention or are competing with a multitude of other "just as worthy" causes for face time with people in a crowded room then these tools will bring the people to your table - and keep them there long enough for you to engage them in a truly heartfelt conversation. Forget graphs and poster boards - capture interest quickly and prove fiscal responsibility by getting a donor or local business to underwrite the costs of purchasing these essential fund/friend raising tools. 

The key chain holds 60 electronic photos and donors absolutely LOVE them to show off their favorite cause to all their friends.  I give the key chains away to mid level and major donors as end of year and event participation thank you gifts and they have brought in thousands of dollars in new contributions. Buy in bulk and you can get them very cheap (under $5). Again, get a donor or business to underwrite the cost as they get all the additional benefits of direct marketing to people they need as customers all the while supporting your cause in a very unique and attention grabbing manner. It's a win/win. Be sure to get signed photo releases when using pictures of anyone, especially when using the images of your program participants and children.
