Our Services
Lotus offers comprehensive fundraising services tailored to our clients' needs, encompassing every aspect of a robust development department, including strategy, major donor support, grant writing, development operations, and embedded leadership.
Fundraising Strategy
We create multi-year development plans, annual fundraising strategies, campaign roadmaps, and revenue diversification strategies that are custom-built for your donor base and your team—never a generic template. The result is a clear strategy you can confidently share with your board and an immediate, actionable sequence of next steps your development director can put into action first thing Monday morning.
Major Donor Support & Coaching
When it comes to securing significant gifts, you deserve a partner who is fully invested. We provide hands-on expertise for every stage: prospect research, cultivation planning, and solicitation coaching, so you can close those gifts with confidence.
Grant & Report Development
Funder research, prospect qualification, proposal, application, and report development, and grant calendar management for foundation, government, and corporate institutional giving. Lotus writes specific, evidence-grounded proposals that match a client’s programs to the funders most likely to support them.
Development Operations
Database management and optimization, gift processing, acknowledgment workflows, performance reporting, and the standard operating procedures that hold a development function together. Lotus assesses the operational foundation, fixes what is broken, and documents the systems so a client’s team can run them confidently after the engagement ends.
Fractional Leadership
Fractional development leadership, vacancy coverage, and embedded capacity for organizations facing a gap, a leave of absence, or a scaling moment. Lotus operates as a functioning part of the client’s development team for as long as the engagement requires.
