Before the strategy retreat, board members were emailing, calling, and texting me—even on the weekends. After the event, that stopped. The board now knows their job. They understand it includes fiduciary responsibilities. It’s not only about showing up at meetings or micromanaging the staff.

I recommend Karen to all those who are working on fundraising. Karen is a wonderful asset. She is capable of taking complex ideas and making them simple enough that all people can participate in fundraising. We believe that all agency members are fundraisers. Karen makes that true.

The reaction to the Comprehensive Arts Strategy was, ‘Wow. It’s not only well-done, but it’s also really comprehensive.’ The Comprehensive Arts Strategy includes everything possible, prioritized. We listened to all of the good ideas in the community, organized them, added structure and leadership, and how to pay for it.
