Let’s work together.
Donor Organizing and Advising
I train, coach and advise organizers to become more effective, more powerful and more joyful leaders in social justice movements, including by moving money into grassroots, transformative social and economic justice work. I’ve been fundraising since 2000 and have helped to move millions into organizing, I co-designed and co-led led SURJ-Toronto’s fundraising program and have trained organizers in racial justice, sex work, reproductive, climate, housing and LGBTQ movements to fund local and national campaigns, mutual aid and legal defense funds and capital campaigns to purchase land. In 2020, I helped to organize the largest sex worker mutual aid fund in Canadian history. I know from experience that fundraising/donor organizing can be nourishing, joyful, exciting and even pleasurable. I also advise on high capacity organizers and their families on how to making giving/redistributing their money a powerful and accountable part of their organizing work.
