About Fundraising Unfiltered

Welcome to Fundraising Unfiltered—my love letter to nonprofit leaders who are done with sugar-coated advice and tired tactics that don’t work. I’m Danielle Locke, your Nonprofit Success Partner. I’ve raised tens of millions for organizations of all sizes, and now I help leaders like you fund your mission with confidence—without fear or burnout. We talk fundraising, staff drama, board issues, budget cuts—even bullet holes. Real stories. Smart solutions. Laugh-out-loud moments. Let’s go.
