ABOUT JPFS
James is the principal and founder of JP Fundraising Solutions. He first experience of philanthropy happened when he was still in the womb. “When my dad died way too young of a heart attack, he left behind my mom, who was eight months pregnant with me, and my four siblings,” he says. “Relatives, the community, the church, our neighbors, all rallied around my family in that tragic time. I didn’t know it then, but philanthropy writ large would have a huge impact on my upbringing and my values.”
OUR APPROACH
The most successful fundraising is done when nonprofits meld their vision and mission with donors’ philanthropic goals and priorities. Philanthropy is a pathway toward an aspirational vision of making the world a better place. We use these principles, combined with a nonprofit’s unique needs and characteristics, to guide our engagements, whether it is writing a case for support, engaging donors in a planning study, or guiding a campaign effort.
CLIENT ENDORSEMENTS
Whether it’s the board, staff or volunteers, James is universally trusted by Washington’s National Park Fund for his counsel. He truly makes us feel like we are his only client. He takes the time to drink in our personality, culture and quirks, and provides counsel that is always spot on.
