Benevon (formerly Raising More Money) has worked with more than 3,000 nonprofits of all sizes and types around the world to build towards sustainable funding. Our groups continually exceed our expectations.

In 2006, the average organization we trained and coached raised $202,000 in gifts and pledges at their fundraising Ask Event^™. They also learned to powerfully connect with donors and increase their visibility and support. Our alumni have inspiring stories about their experience with the Benevon approach—we have included some of those stories here.
