Consulting can be an appealing next step for seasoned fundraisers, nonprofit leaders who have hit the glass ceiling, or for those who are ready to use their expertise in different ways.
About one third of the members of the Fabulous Female Fundraisers, a membership nonprofit for Black female fundraisers, have chosen this path, using their expertise to guide nonprofits in leadership development, grant writing and fundraising.
