Third Sector Consulting

If you have the privilege of working with Laura and Third Sector Consulting, it is my wholehearted belief that you will see the positive impact not only in your development department, but in your organization as a whole.

Jenna Taylor, Executive Director, Child Bridge

All I can say is, 'WOW!' You've got this grant writing thing down.

Erica Yaeger, Executive Director, Sci-Tech Discovery Center

Laura taught a basic grant writing class in which I was enrolled. The class was well thought out and presented. Course material was reinforced by thought-provoking writing exercises. I was impressed with Laura's depth of understanding, critical thinking and ability to convey technical information.

Larry Shotland, Board Member, Public Land/Water Access Association

I can't tell you how much your classes have taught me and how valuable they are going to be to our Chamber! Whipping our board into shape is the first item on our list and we wouldn't be able to do that in an effective way if it wasn't for you!

Keri Driggers, Membership Director, Fountain Inn Chamber of Commerce

Working with Laura streamlined the incredibly complex process of grant writing. She got to know our organization and projects and translated that knowledge into a clear set of steps for us to move forward and grow.

Gregg Treinish, Executive Director, Adventure Scientists

Laura is savvy at research, editing and final production. She is an excellent collaborator, bringing deep knowledge and keen insights to each project we have engaged her in. Add to these skills that she is fun to work with and you have the ideal partner for any consulting situation.

Christy Collum, Director of Development, Reading Connections

Laura's workshop was like 'Grant Writing for Dummies' without making the attendees feel 'dumb.'

Amanda Boerboom, Executive Director, Eagle Mount Billings

Laura has done a great job of providing our school with the necessary tools for successful grant writing. I highly recommend her services to any organization that is looking to improve their level of fundraising.

David Bowman, Director of Development, St. David's School

When the foundation called to tell us we had received an increased award, they said that our proposal [that Laura wrote] was hands down 'the best, the most thorough proposal. Gold star, A+!' 

Mary, Director of Donor Relations, Child Bridge

Laura's prospect report was not merely a matter of her handing us a list. Because Laura cares and is conscientious, her services went above and beyond what was expected. She attended several board meetings and was professional and generous, often giving us specific suggestions that might help us with fundraising.

Chuck Peck, Board Member, Bozeman Sculpture Park

I can't say enough about all the positive outcomes that Laura has brought to our organization. She's written amazing grants that have been critical to expanding our organization. She's helped me strengthen my  writing and improve my communication and contact with individual donors. She's also just truly a joy to talk to and work with.

Kelsie Severson, Director of Development, Mountain Home Montana

Not only is Laura very knowledgeable about nonprofits, but the reports she provided our board are excellent and practical. Laura has excellent listening skills and her positive approach to the vision of BSP helped us rethink our approach to fundraising and grant writing.
