What is Fractional Fundraising?

Fractional fundraising is a flexible staffing solution for nonprofits, where fundraising professionals are hired on a part-time basis. These consultants provide strategic guidance, manage projects, write grants, and cultivate donor relationships. It is an ideal option for organizations with limited resources that cannot afford full-time staff or retainer-based fundraising agencies. By engaging consultants as needed, nonprofits can access fundraising expertise without the commitment of a full-time employee. This model enhances fundraising capacity, controls costs, and can be used to supplement existing efforts, bridge gaps during transitions or growth, and achieve financial goals while maintaining flexibility and scalability.
