What’s your style of working with organizations?

The engagements where both the client and I have felt the most successful is when I can come in as part of your board or staff team to work through an issue from start to finish. I work with your internal resources as much as possible to not only build capacity, but reduce the cost to you. 

Do you help with  fundraising?

Not in the traditional sense. I do consult with health-related organizations on potential resource development and private and public funding. If you’re in need of a fund development analysis, planned giving, direct mail or other fundraising or event services, I would be glad to help you find the right adviser.

What do you mean by community initiatives?

Engagements where I help bring together different sectors, organizations or points of view to solve a social problem and/or enhance systems. This is accomplished through facilitation, re-framing issues, finding common ground, convening decision makers, identifying priorities and funding or advancing policy.

Can you help me if I have a limited budget? How do you charge for projects?

I would be happy to provide your organization with a free consultation where we can discuss your budget and potential fees. This gives us both a chance to understand needs, priorities and the potential scope of work. Unless it is a very limited engagement, most often I suggest a project rate for a set of deliverables.   

Will you provide references?

I invite you to review a list of some of my past and current clients here. Organizations that are still in business are linked and I can provide contact info for references for any organization listed.

Do you sign non-disclosure agreements?

I routinely work on highly sensitive projects that require confidentiality, so I’m happy to sign a non-disclosure agreement. Additionally, depending upon the nature of the engagement, the product is typically owned by the client.

Do you work with clients outside of Tucson?

Yes, although most of my business is in the Arizona nonprofit sector, I have both for-profit and non-profit clients in other states.

I have a project that is not included on your list of services. How can I get a hold of you to discuss?

Please email me at rossetti@dakotacom.net or call or text (520) 241-3485.  All inquiries will come directly to me and are confidential.

 

Thank you for your interest in partnering with me on your next important initiative.

"We initially engaged Christina in a complex project that involved bringing together eight diverse organizations to explore synergies and opportunities to collaborate.  She immediately gained the trust and confidence of all of the parties involved-- and she had the savvy to know how to move forward to achieve real results.  She is a superb pro and has helped us on several projects since then."
