I sat down with Stephanie Roth and Haley Bash, co-authors of the updated Accidental Fundraiser, and we got into what it really means to fundraise when you didn’t plan on it—and maybe don’t feel totally ready for it.
We talked about:
Why so many people still feel uncomfortable asking for money
How house parties can be more effective (and fun) than galas
The power of tapping your volunteers as donors
Fundraising as a form of community organizing
And why trying to ask everyone for everything never works
One thing I loved: You don’t need fancy tools or big events to raise real money. A solid list, a clear plan, and authentic relationships can take you far.
This episode is full of practical advice and encouragement—especially if you’re building the plane while flying it. You’re not alone.
