What People Are Saying

 

“Jim has a keen sense for how to tackle projects and resolve issues in a way that fosters a solution that is detail and action oriented, yet also personal. While furthering mission and purpose of an organization. People want to work with him and his engaging personality."

— Nonprofit President

 

“We were established in 2018 and have been working diligently on spreading awareness and raising funds. We had come to a point where we needed help growing to succeed at our mission. There were many areas that desperately needed attention and expertise. I met Jim Rathburn and instantly made a connection.

Jim has been such a blessing to our nonprofit. I don’t know what I would do without him. Truly he is our earth angel and has taken us under his wing. We are blessed. Jim is innovative and informed on how to approach donor bases. He is willing and able to roll up his sleeves and do the work we don’t have time to do. He knows our mission and story and uses high end communications skills to establish donor connections. We now have a strategic plan for development. I highly recommend Jim. He brings his heart, passion, humor & personality that we just can’t do without. This passion and knowledge is priceless.”

— Executive Director, Nonprofit Organization

 

“I have seen his work in managing teams, budgets, and projects. His collaborative style leads to execution of a plan that suits all staff and company needs. He's the first person I would want on a project team. And his ability to present the face of the organization and close deals is phenomenal. He knows how to identify the client and align our mission to it. He was instrumental in our growth."

— Senior VP at large US insurance company.

“We have been most pleased with Jim's leadership, innovation, attention to financials in his role on our Board. He understands the big picture, but isn't afraid to get into the weeds and do the work needed to aid an organization. A rare mix of talent. And his humor and good nature make him a pleasure to be around. He adds positive energy to our organization."

— Nonprofit Owner

 

“We needed to pivot our fundraiser in 2020 in light of the pandemic, since we were unable to conduct our annual in person fundraiser. We needed to develop and engage sponsors critical to our financial success. Jim co-led a team to create and carry a message. He quickly worked to refine and develop a donor list and diligently “worked” that list. While prepared to achieve less than last year's sponsor total, we ended up at 125% of 2019 totals!! With his infectious positive personality, people on his team and donors want to work with him. He was an invaluable asset to our organization.”

— President, Nonprofit Organization

 

"In my role as CPA advising nonprofit firms and being exposed to legal issues, I have seen Jim's ability to quickly grasp the numbers and know the pressure points. His legal background brings a style of strategic and problem solving thinking that would be most helpful to nonprofits."
