Project details

What we need
  • Document outlining feedback on pitch delivery with suggested next steps and/or resources
  • A script for a 1-minute verbal pitch that communicates your Organization's mission, work, and why people should care
Additional details

WCI is looking for someone to help our team refine our verbal pitch. As an organization with 23 years of work and a wide range of programs around the world, we sometimes find it difficult to condense all of our work down into a concise pitch. We would appreciate you helping us create a script to do so!

What we have in place
  • We currently have 23 years of organizational documents and program reports, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a President who founded WCI and has institutional knowledge, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,397 , allowing us to continue to pay our dedicated staff members.

WCI has struggled to move from primarily relying on government grants (1998-2016) to successfully soliciting donations from foundations, corporations, and individuals. We believe that refining our pitch to reflect our history of work will help us secure new partnerships and funding opportunities.

Testimonials

Rhonda provided our team with truly valuable insight into how we can more effectively approach our network in our fundraising efforts. Rhonda took the time to learn about our organization and listen to our team in order to craft several pitches that fit our organization's current needs. Our conversations with Rhonda were all very productive and efficient while also being a lot of fun. It was really nice to work with someone so friendly and professional who wasn't afraid to give us her unbiased view of where we could make much needed changes and updates to our current pitches and website design. Rhonda provided us with everything we asked for and more, and our whole team is looking forward to working with her again in the future. We definitely recommend working with Rhonda on your next project!
