YOU HAVE A DREAM!
Every nonprofit begins with a secret dream of something better.You know that vision; you know that need.
But how do you avoid feeling like you’re “begging” for money? And how do you keep the money from becoming more important than those who give?
Give Way Visioneering guides you, the local non-profit leader to:
1. Know what you need to get started or improve as a local non-profit entity.
2. Ask for money in a dignified way that will work in your unique culture and circumstance.
3. Move into healthy, long-term, predictable and sustainable fundraising and volunteerism strategies.
Give Way Visioneering consists of caring authorities who have worked with leaders from well over 100 communities to give expertise on the topic of culturally adapting fundraising concepts.
YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO GIVE
You want to change something in the world and you know that you can help by giving time or money. But how do you know where best to give? How can you avoid being taken advantage of – or even scammed?
Give Way Visioneering (GWV) guides you, a small or large potential donor or volunteer, to a Charitable Giving Advisor in the area of your interest. Where there isn’t one, GWV can do the research for you by providing Seven Charitable Questions (c) to:
1. Sort through the thousands of charities available to find a reputable, best place for you to give.
2. Learn how to politely ask the right questions to avoid being manipulated into giving more or longer than needed.
3. Ensure that your giving is meeting the kind of progress and impact targets you expect.
Give Way Visioneering consists of experienced fundraisers who are also experienced donors and volunteers. Giving is a rewarding and satisfying relationship, not a gloomy drain on your time, expertise, and money.

A few things we’re great at!
LISTENING
Every nonprofit and every donor is completely unique. Even large nonprofits with multiple offices in different communities or countries find that each office culture has a separate set of challenges. We listen in order to envision a viable solution with you for your context.
SHARING IDEAS
Due to our global experience, there is a good chance that we’ve picked up an idea elsewhere that you may be able to use. If you like it, we’ll work with you to adapt it to your goals. Of course it won’t work exactly the same everywhere but cultural adaptation is one of our specialties.
CULTURAL ADAPTATION
Since no two nonprofits or donors are the same, adaptation to the urban, rural, regional or national cultures are imperative in order to be successful. We’ve worked in about 50 countries and talked to leaders and donors from over 100 nations. If we aren’t familiar with the situation, we’ll look for someone who can help.
COLLABORATION
We know that non-profits want to be self-reliant and sustainable for long-term success. Donors want that too! Let’s make it happen.
