Welcome to Carlson Fundraising
Having partnered with over 200 unique nonprofit organizations, we have developed the hypothesis that there is a shortage of qualified major gift prospects for three reasons:
donor bases are too small;
no “moves management” approach to upgrade entry level donors;
no systematic approach to identify and qualify major and planned gift “prospects.”
With a proven, systematic approach developed over 30+ years of experience, Carlson Fundraising builds donor bases and moves donors up the gift pyramid, generating more legitimate major and planned gift prospects.

Receive More Major Gifts
Our focus is building and preparing the “middle” of your family of donors to ask for and receive major gifts. Once a donor is acquired, we implement a systematic approach of “moves management” which includes identification, qualification, stewardship, cultivation and solicitation strategies—moving donors up the donor pyramid—resulting in major gifts.
