  • I knew we made the right choice with Sean when I asked him how we can increase our board member giving and he sent me his board member fundraising worksheet. Using this tool, we have been able to quadruple our board fundraising goals.

  • "Sean Kosofsky’s lecture on the basics of fundraising was incredibly informative. Not only did he touch on tried-and-true methods, Sean also discussed new platforms that organizations can leverage to increase participation in their campaigns."

    Timos Pietris, Office of President , Long Island Univ.

  • "Fundraising is based on making sure you understand the big picture and then get some small details right. It is also based on not being afraid to make an “ask”. Sean Kosofsky’s book is a great refresher on tools to raise money. I would recommend it to all non-profits."

Hi, I’m Sean, the "Nonprofit Fixer!" 

I’m a coach, consultant, trainer, and strategic advisor. For the past 30+ years, I’ve helped causes, campaigns, and candidates raise millions of dollars and transformed nonprofit organizations and leaders. I’ve served in a wide variety of roles in nonprofits, including policy, communications, development, grassroots organizing, direct service, board leadership, and five stints as an executive director. I’ve worked on a wide range of issues including LGBTQ equality, reproductive justice, voting access, bullying prevention, climate change, and more. 

You can see my work covered in media outlets internationally and I’ve received numerous awards and recognitions from the sector, the City of Detroit and the State of Michigan. I collaborate with leading nonprofit names like AFP, Candid, United Way, Idealware, Bloomerang, TechSoup, Wild Apricot, Funding for Good, Pamela Grow, and more. I own Mind the Gap Consulting, which offers coaching and consulting services for executive directors, boards, and fundraisers, as well as a suite of online training courses. I am a proud Detroit native but live with my husband and dog in New York City.
