What Is NGO Joe?
Why NGO Joe Exists
Most nonprofit founders and leaders are just like I was—deeply committed to their mission but under-resourced when it comes to the business side of doing good. You care deeply about the people you serve. You work long hours. You wear multiple hats. And you're trying to figure it all out as you go.
I'm here to share the behind-the-scenes reality of nonprofit leadership so you can do more good, better. Not theory. Not buzzwords. Just honest, practical lessons from the trenches—stories of what worked, what failed, and what I wish someone had told me years ago.
Fundraising Is Not Asking, It’s Inviting
When my friend asked if I ever get tired of raising money, my answer was simple: no. Because what we do changes lives. Fundraising, at its best, is not about transactions; it’s about shared mission, hope, and building something meaningful together.
