"After carefully screening several candidates for campaign consultants, our Saint John's Foundation Board selected your firm to assist us with preparation for a surgery capital campaign. As Foundation Director, I had the pleasure of working with Jessica and her colleague Sondra Forrester regularly. Here are some of the qualities of the counsel, which I value highly:
Fun to work with - Health care is serious work - life and death. While keeping that in mind, our time together was productive and fun. There was always room for laughter and the energy generated by creation of new, stimulating fundraising plans.
Professional expertise - Jessica has a wide range of experiences with a variety of clients. She can offer perspectives and tailor solutions to the specific needs of the client.
Big picture in mind - Regularly Jessica tested new plans against organizational and fundraising objectives. She provided several useful suggestions to strengthen the organization, not just the fundraising effort.
Candid in a respective way - Jessica and Sondra both have a gift for providing difficult feedback or new ideas in a kind way. This respectful but candid approach helped us bring needed information to the table and win support for next steps.
I recommend her highly to others seeking campaign consulting and will hire her again.
Pam H. Jones
Saint John's Foundation Director
