How We Help Not-For-Profits Grow...

At Lisa Doucette Consulting, we know that not-for-profits are at the heart of thriving communities. But even the most passionate organizations need the right support to grow their impact, secure sustainable funding, and move their missions forward.

That’s where we come in.

We partner with mission-driven organizations to build strong fundraising foundations, strengthen donor relationships, and create strategies rooted in values, clarity, and long-term sustainability. Whether you're just starting out or ready to scale, we offer the guidance and tools to help you grow with intention.

Our Approach

We believe growth happens when strategy meets heart. Our work is grounded in collaboration, transparency, and a deep respect for the communities you serve.

Fundraising Strategy & Planning

We work with you to design practical, achievable fundraising plans that align with your mission and capacity. From annual giving to major gifts, we build systems that make sense for your team and your goals.

 

Case Development & Storytelling

Your story matters. We help you shape a powerful case for support that inspires donors, funders, and partners to invest in your vision—because when your message is clear, your impact shines through.

 

Grant & Proposal Writing

We translate your work into compelling, fundable language. Whether it's a government grant, corporate partnership, or foundation proposal, we help you navigate the process and tell your story with confidence.

 

Donor Engagement & Stewardship

Retention is just as important as acquisition. We help you deepen relationships with your supporters through thoughtful stewardship strategies that build trust and long-term giving.

 

Campaign Planning & Readiness

Thinking about launching a capital or major campaign? We guide you through the early stages—from feasibility to messaging to structure—so you’re well-prepared to reach your goals.

 

Specialized Support for Rural, Agricultural & Community-Based Organizations

With a deep background in agriculture, rural development, and food security, we understand the unique challenges and opportunities that rural organizations face. I also help farmers, agricultural companies and community development organizations with business planning. We offer tailored strategies that honour your values and amplify your impact. We’re Here to Be Your Strategic Partner. Whether you need short-term support or long-term collaboration, we bring experience, empathy and clarity to every project. 

 

Our goal is simple: to help you grow in a way that’s sustainable, mission-aligned, and rooted in your community.

I would like to acknowledge that we are in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq People. This land is covered by the “Treaties of Peace and Friendship,” first signed in 1725, which established an ongoing relationship between the Mi’kmaq and Wolastoqiyik Peoples and the Crown. These treaties recognized the Mi’kmaq’s rights to their land and resources, and they remain living agreements to this day.

I also wish to honour the legacy and contributions of African Nova Scotians, whose communities have been an integral part of the province for over 400 years. These communities have deep roots, resilience, and cultural influence that continue to shape Nova Scotia today.We are all Treaty People, and we are called to live in right relations with one another and with this land.
