Quite simply, we couldn't have done it this year (2020) without Vandersall Collective. Not only did they give us the moral support we needed to feel brave enough to ask donors for funding, but we also received the tools to be able to continue to raise funds in a sustainable way. It was such a natural working relationship. Both myself and the board actually enjoyed the process of fundraising (can you believe that??) and felt thoroughly supported throughout. Our programming actually expanded in a year we should've shrunk.

I think most surprising was how Vandersall Collective made us really consider our strengths, who we were as an organization, and what was possible for us. Once we did that, things began to open up for us.

The Vandersall Collective has approached our work together eager to listen and be attuned to the uniqueness of our organization, its identity, and its needs. I am so grateful for the coaching and empowerment they have been providing us—it has already started to transform the culture of our organization.

Working with the Vandersall team has been a game-changer for our organization. The combination of skills this team has brought to the table revolutionized our operations, communications, fundraising, and strategic planning for the future. As a director charged with a challenging re-start, Vandersall was exactly the resource I needed, soup to nuts, in a visionary one stop shop. The passion, wisdom and devotion to the future of the church and the world charged our team and our Board with resolve and determination. What a gift!

On our own, we would not be able to navigate these waters. We’re grateful for the partnership we feel with Mieke and her team.
