Fund Development
There is no one size fits all in fundraising. Sheikh/Impact provides a comprehensive range of fund development services, designed to help nonprofits find the right blend of funding sources, maximize available resources and ensure future sustainability.
Because we have yet to find a client whose staff isn’t wearing multiple hats already, we’re also here to help you do the work.
Providing expertise along a spectrum — from strategy to implementation to assessment — we help clients identify challenges and opportunities, establish clear and measurable goals and carry out the work needed to achieve success.

This team is truly dedicated to helping our hospital achieve its mission and has become an extension of our internal team. I’m so reliant on Kelly Fitzgerald’s support — she is detail-oriented, deadline-focused and a valuable thought partner. Her planning, interviewing and writing skills have helped make countless hospital initiatives successful.
