Development Audit & Organizational Assessments

Clarity. Insight. A Stronger Path Forward.

Because we’ve been there ourselves, at Loring, Sternberg, and Associates, we know how easy it is for nonprofit teams to get caught up in the day-to-day of fundraising. A Development Audit or Organizational Assessment offers the chance to pause, take a clear look at where you are, and chart a smart, achievable path toward greater success.

We take a positive, strengths-based approach, celebrating what’s working while identifying opportunities to grow. Our goal isn’t to critique; we want to equip your team with clarity, confidence, and practical next steps that make fundraising more effective and sustainable.

What You Can Expect

Every assessment is customized to your organization’s needs, size, and goals. Through conversations, data review, and honest reflection, we help you understand:

Strategy Assessment

How well your current fundraising strategies and systems are working.

Opportunity Identification

Where there are gaps, untapped opportunities, or areas for improvement.

Team Alignment

How to align your staff, board, and volunteers around shared fundraising priorities.

Capacity Building

What steps will build long-term capacity and donor relationships.

We listen first. We ask thoughtful questions. And we bring decades of hands-on experience helping nonprofits of all kinds strengthen their fundraising programs and internal systems.

You’ll receive clear, actionable recommendations, not a lengthy report that sits on a shelf.
