I have Chris Baiocchi on the podcast with me today and I have known him probably my whole career in fundraising. Early on in my career when I didn't really know what I was doing, he offered to meet with me for coffee and it's been a joy to learn from him.
Chris has worked in the nonprofit space for more than 22 years as a communicator, fundraiser, and leader. He is the founder and CEO of Resolute Philanthropy, a consulting firm that provides nonprofit leaders with the tools and resources they need to thrive because a kinder, safer, healthier world needs engaged and effective nonprofits.

NOTEWORTHY QUOTES
“Fundraising in and of itself is worthless. It doesn't do anything. Fundraising has to be done in service of something bigger. That's what makes fundraising work. That's when you see really remarkable fundraising efforts happen.”
“Philanthropy and fundraising are the biggest engines we have to make change in the world. And it's like the easiest on-ramp we can give people to come alongside a cause they believe in Because I do believe that people want to do the right thing. But I also believe that most people don't know how to do the right thing. So nonprofits have this opportunity and this obligation to give people a chance to come alongside them.”
