"Danielle presented on Donor Engagement for our annual nonprofit symposium. Her presentation was VERY well received and she got 5-star ratings from all of our attendees.
Her information was clear and concise, and it was obvious that she would be an excellent resource for nonprofits looking for assistance with development."
"Danielle at Locke Step Partners is a great ally for those of us at small non-profits. She has provided our organization with actionable steps towards reaching our fundraising goals that aren't overwhelming for an already thinly stretched staff. Definitely recommend!"
"I found Locke Step Partners' workshops incredibly useful for nonprofits. Danielle's expertise was outstanding, and her friendly teaching style made it easy to take away practical knowledge that could be implemented immediately."
