Stop Treating Donors Like ATMs | Founder & President Chris Gabriel
“Don’t treat me like an ATM.” That’s what one major donor told Chris Gabriel—and it reveals one of the biggest problems in fundraising today. In this episode, Chris explains why transactional thinking damages donor relationships and leads to missed opportunities for deeper impact. He reframes the role of fundraisers—not as sellers, but as guides helping donors fulfill their highest purpose. If you want to build stronger, more meaningful donor relationships, this conversation offers a blueprint you can start using immediately.

The Donor Relationship Playbook | VP of Development Matt Sheffield
What keeps a donor coming back year after year? In this episode, Drew sits down with Matt Sheffield, Vice President of Development at Mosaic, to talk about the not-so-glamorous work that actually builds lasting support. Matt shares what he’s learned after two decades of leading development across multiple regions, and why “relationship” isn’t a buzzword, it’s the whole job. They dig into the difference between managing donors and partnering with them, how to stay mission-first without sounding scripted, and how to build trust when results matter. This conversation is practical, honest, and grounded in real experience. If you’re tired of short-term fundraising and want gifts that repeat, start here.
