Third Sector Consulting

There is no way we would be able to navigate the nuances of a federal grant under such a short timeframe without Laura! Her dedication and attention to detail are second to none!

Kent Doughty, CEO, oneHealth

Laura's quest for excellence never fails to inspire all - whether Board of Directors, staff or volunteers - to move mountains to achieve our mission. She has a unique blend of intelligence, understanding of the broader community, humor and good common sense that combine to support the work of others.

Jennifer Gore, Executive Director, Reading Connections

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 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

I couldn't be more pleased with the fundraising training offered by Laura. Laura's training has had a significant impact on the success of our organization. She played a very important part in allowing me to feel more confident in fundraising. I know that is shared by others at GVF2S who have participated in her workshops as well.

Sam Blomquist, Executive Director, Gallatin Valley Farm to School

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

Laura's done great work for our organization and I'd hire her for additional work in a second.

Gary Bloomer, Client Development Director, TechRanch

Laura is simply the gold standard! If you're fortunate enough to work with her, your nonprofit will be better off. And if you are the liaison with her, you will be rewarded personally as well. A stellar human being and an expert at her craft, bar none!

Mary Bryan, Co-Founder, Child Bridge

A foundation representative just called and said our application [that Laura wrote] was 'the best proposal I've read - EVER!'

Sarah Kennedy, Senior Director of Development, Inspirica

Laura is a valuable resource in our community. Her presentation this year on fundraising for our monthly Nonprofit Cafe had our highest attendance to date. Laura is able to make fundraising and grant writing accessible to a nonprofit of any size and capacity.

Bridget Wilkinson, Foundation Manager, Bozeman Area Community Foundation

Laura's work to help us identify foundations that may fund our work filled an important gap for us. She is professional, and her work is thorough and well researched. I have already recommended her to several other nonprofits, which speaks to my high opinion of her work and of her.

Penelope Pierce, Executive Director, Gallatin Valley Land Trust

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
