Client Testimonials
“ This campaign was not just for bricks and mortar. It was to build a future of hope and opportunity for all our young people, our whole community. It was to save lives. We were never going to give up or accept anything less.”
TW&B’s guidance, training, research and experience meshed with the mission of NSSRA and our need for a new home. Together we created a team that communicated the need and capital goal to NSSRA’s communities, who responded with overwhelming generosity.
While they aren’t based in Milwaukee, TW&B really understood Milwaukee and the state of philanthropy here.
I could relate to the consultants at TW&B better than any of the other consultants we encountered from larger firms. They had experience with universities of our size, and even though we’re a small university, we felt we were a legitimate client.
TW&B helped us learn to use data to drive results. We’ve grown our database and are drawing major gifts from areas where we’ve never had donors before.
Amy and Anne were enthusiastic and able to work with people of all skill levels when it came to fundraising. They were great at communicating and finding a way that everyone can be contributing and finding a role for everyone to help the plan be successful.
Working with TW&B and Clyde (Watkins) provided much needed objectivity to our campaign…He knew The Rep so well that sometimes I forgot he wasn’t a staff member.
No matter what the question was regarding fundraising or nonprofits, Jon always had the answer and the data to back it up.
The concept of our CFESA World Headquarters and Global Training Facility was a game changer for our industry. The capital campaign was a daunting task with an accelerated time frame. TW&B Vice President Don Souhrada was an integral member of our fundraising team. He guided us and took direction as needed. We are on track to hit our financial goal in less than one year’s time in large part due to our partnership with TW&B. We are extremely grateful for the advice and counsel throughout this process.
From the very first day on the job, our consultants at Ter Molen Watkins & Brandt were integral to our efforts. They began by preparing our development team for a challenging campaign and together we crafted and implemented an initial fundraising strategy that was very successful, despite the economy. I counted on their thoughtful guidance, wise counsel and accomplished experience at each step of campaign planning and implementation.
