Testimonials
“When I first met Tamar, she had boundless enthusiasm and I thought it was just the coffee. Since then I don't think I've seen her anything less than full of that same energy, (truly) genuine sentiment and willingness to help. I've found her to not only be able and competent, but she has a whole-picture perspective that is equally refreshing. She's always on the pulse of the fund-raising industry and she values learning about you and your cause. You, your people and your organization's brand will be motivated by the expansive drive she exudes. I wholeheartedly recommend Tamar to help your organization with its fund-raising strategies. It wasn't just the coffee; it was her passion.” - Ray Sidney-Smith, President/Founder, Young CEOs
"Tamar was a life-saver for Neighborhood Funders Group (NFG) during my tenure as executive director. NFG had experienced staff transition and needed someone to immediately come in and pick up key communications and membership duties in a national organization. Tamar demonstrated her command and expertise in managing our website, leading and executing all pieces of communication on behalf of the organization, and building a social media presence for this organization for the first time in its 30 year history. Tamar fit right in with our team, and before long, we were happy to welcome her as an acting member of our staff. She was integral to the work of the organization and became a trusted colleague and friend to staff. Her work speaks for itself and her growth is amazing and inspirational to witness." - Melissa Johnson, Former Executive Director, Neighborhood Funders Group
