How I help NGOs
It’s time to give your fundraising team the clarity, direction, know-how and feedback they need to succeed.
Do you need to raise more money for your organization’s world-changing work, but lack the time or clarity to focus on donors, grants, investors, or other funding sources? Unsure which funders are the right fit, how to get noticed, or how to write successful grants and proposals?
I help nonprofits and NGOs secure funding and build lasting capacity through tailored coaching and fundraising strategy. I specialize in multilingual and international teams, including those seeking grants in Spanish. Together, we’ll streamline your fundraising, craft compelling narratives, and set your organization up to succeed.

LEARN HOW TO USE CHATGPT WELL— SO YOUR TEAM SAVES TIME, BOOSTS QUALITY, AND FEELS UNSTOPPABLE
ChatGPT Workshop for NGOs
Most NGOs today aren’t getting the benefits of AI. Either because they aren’t using it at all or because they are using it so poorly that it’s actually shooting themselves in the foot with donors.
But a study conducted by Harvard University found that people who use AI well complete tasks 25% faster and with 40% higher quality. Learning to use AI well for your work is a no-brainer.
In this 3-hour, hands-on, practical workshop, your team gets everything they need, step-by-step, to use ChatGPT well for their work. Be it for fundraising, grant writing, communications, research, strategy, general writing, or internal planning. Without losing your organization’s voice or values.
This workshop is designed to help your team work smarter, protect their energy, and expand impact. Participants have called it “transformational” and “the best AI workshop for NGOs”.

Results
- Erin Mooney, Executive Director, Safe Passage
“The tools, organization and systems you use are some of the most effective I have ever seen.”
- Audrey Jones, Grant Researcher & Writer, formerly Natun Guatemala
“I count myself lucky to have met Shoshana when I worked on grants internationally-- I learned SO much from her! Shoshana is a wealth of knowledge and an unparalleled mentor and resource for navigating the grant system. Just 6 months ago I partnered with a Black-led, grassroots nonprofit in Columbus and I have already secured over $100,000 for them. These results are blowing my mind.”
- Kate Thompson, Amani Foundation
“Shoshana was not just an incredible coach; she was a game-changer for our nonprofit. Social Impact Compass provided tailored advice and targeted strategies that truly highlighted our organization’s strengths, and built upon them. Beyond her expertise, Shoshana was a wonderful human being—empathetic, a great listener, and creative in her perspective. Her personalized, strategic approach quickly identified actionable leverage points that empowered our grassroots, community-led nonprofit towards stabilizing and strengthening our fundraising efforts. We were incredibly grateful for our time with her.”

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Grant proposals are approved based on the believability of the applicant, the competition, the technical correctness of the proposal and the story it tells. I get you set on, and am expert at, the last two. The first is up to you (though I will certainly let you know if I spot areas for strengthening here) and the second is unknowable. And it’s similar for the other types of fundraising.
What I can guarantee is this: if we collaborate and you put in the work, you will be well on your way to achieving- and potentially even exceeding -your fundraising goals. -

Most NGOs have a limited budget, and it’s normal for investing in your fundraising to feel like a stretch. But here’s the thing: investing in support dramatically increases your chances of hitting your fundraising goals in the long run. Most likely, if you are reading this, your current strategy has not gotten you all the way to your goal. And if you continue on this same path, you will continue to get the same results you have been getting. Investing in your grants team is the fastest way to change that.
Our pricing is designed to be accessible AND we have multiple payment plan options to fit your budget.
I am also happy to do a free, initial strategy session with you. During this session, we will design a simple strategy for you to approach your board and current individual or institutional donors to ask them for the additional resources for this investment. Most funders will be thrilled to support you building your organizational capacity this way! Find a time on my calendar here and select Get Funded Discovery Call (Free).

I developed these specific ways of working together because I wanted to do more with each organization– and reach more organizations –than was possible supporting organizations by the hour.
What I do offer is add-on support for organizations enrolled in Funded with Ease or who already completed it. If that’s what you are looking for, let’s talk!
-
To ensure that local voices are elevated in the grantee space, I am working hard to make my fundraising support available to historically under-resourced NGOs, by:
Providing support in both English and Spanish.
Having tiered pricing, where I offer a discounted rate to NGOs that are solely based and registered in the global south.
Offering (soon!) a group-based version of the program.
Partnering with funders to make the program available at a nominal fee to historically under-resourced NGOs.
**If you are a funder and would like to support this, please contact me.
