Development Consulting Solutions provides experienced and Certified Fund Raising Executives to provide your organisation with interim fundraising staff and offer long term strategies for your overall fundraising success.
What most organisations need is someone who can do the work for them!
DCS recognizes this need and has provided this service to a variety of small to mid-sized nonprofits throughout the New England region and beyond. Some of these nonprofits have included Malta House of Norwalk, CT, Friends of Buttonwood Park of New Bedford, MA, and United Methodist Elder Care of East Providence, RI.
Also, DCS can now offer affordable and effective services to you wherever you are located through a remote and coaching division.
DCS does not engage with everyone!
We have a rigorous eligibility requirement and screening process.
What are the requirements? DCS only works with organisations that are ready, receptive, and willing to take their development program to the next level through outsourced assistance. These organisations have an engaged Board of Directors, an open-minded and willing staff, and leadership ready to support the organisation.
DCS only works with organisations that are willing to invest in their development function, value established service costs, heed professional advice and strategy, and act respectfully in the client and consultant relationship.
By selecting those clients most ready to embark on taking their organisation to the next level, DCS provides you with the tools and staffing to raise more money in support of mission!
