Jessi Marsh is Senior Director at Changing Our World, a leading global philanthropic consulting firm and member of the ONE HUNDRED consortium. She also happens to be a great friend, and all around smart marketer and fundraiser.
I was lucky enough to get some time on her calendar recently (between her frequent trips to New York and Boston where she's consulting on various capital campaigns) to talk with her about communications and public relations, and how those disciplines can impact a nonprofit's fundraising results.
