Stop Running Your Nonprofit In Survival Mode.
Start Building Real Financial Capacity Today.
Is the big vision for your nonprofit still sitting on the sidelines because you never have enough cash to actually make it happen?
You answered a real calling. You didn’t get into this to play small or beg for crumbs. You got into it because lives are on the line: kids, families, communities that need what only your organization can deliver.
But instead of changing the world, you’re stuck doing the same frustrating things everyone else does:
- Begging your board to go out and fundraise, even though most of them hate it and secretly resent you for asking.
- Burning through precious money on expensive feasibility studies that tell you what you already know… “Yes, people might give… maybe… someday.”
- Chasing grants and putting on galas that cost more in time and stress than they ever bring in.
Sound familiar?
The Major Gifts Ramp-Up (MGRU) model is a proven strategy that doesn’t force your board to become reluctant salespeople and doesn’t require you to drop tens of thousands on studies before you can even get started.
For over 35 years this model has been quietly working for nonprofits just like yours. It has already helped organizations raise more than one billion dollars using major gifts from passionate donors who actually want to give.
It’s simple, direct, and brutally effective.
Here’s what it does for you:
- It shows you exactly how to find and connect with millionaire donors in every ZIP code around you. No cold-calling or awkward asks.
- It gives you a clear, step-by-step system to build a steady stream of major gifts that is actually scaleable.
- It taps into the deep, wide river of philanthropy that’s already flowing. You just haven’t been shown the right place to dip your bucket.
We’re holding a live 2-Day Major Gifts Ramp-Up Training on November 12-13, 2026 with Tom Reed (former Executive Director of Unity Shoppe) and Rick Wayman (long-time nonprofit leader based in Santa Barbara).
You and your entire team can attend on full scholarship. Email rick@nanoe.org and request a free scholarship code.
Two intense days. No fluff. Just the real strategies that have produced millions for organizations that were once struggling just like yours.
Here are just a couple of comments from past attendees:
