“Leslie Bluestone has been a great mentor and coach for me with frontline fundraising, including how to write emails to funders requesting meetings and sponsorships, how to structure a site visit, and how to research and write a good briefing paper for leadership. Her energy and enthusiasm are supportive and confidence-inspiring. It has been a pleasure working with Leslie.”
