Testimonials
“In fund raising, volunteer committees need a professional partner who knows how and when to guide, and how and when to push. Goettler Associates certainly was that partner. They greatly helped our transition from fund raising to development.”
- Marcia Ferguson, Executive Director, Parma Hospital Health Care Foundation“Local Matters engaged Goettler Associates to create a financial development plan to accompany our strategic plan. Goettler delved deep into the process, analyzing trends in our revenue streams and monetizing our programmatic goals so that we could make them a reality. In addition, they engaged wonderfully with our board, energizing the group and providing the skills and confidence necessary to make it possible for everyone to ‘make the ask.'”
