Sponsorship and fundraising has changed significantly over the past few years -- what used to work is now almost a guaranteed recipe for failure. But with all the opportunities available through sponsorship, how does one ensure that they do it right? The answer is: Charmaine Hammond. 

Charmaine is the uncontested lead expert in the sponsorship and fundraising arena and teaches the precise principles for success in that game with precision, power, passion, and a perfect touch of humor. If you want to significantly increase your revenue, sponsorship is the journey you want to take, and Charmaine Hammond is the guide you need! 

Learning about the true value of collaborative sponsorship from the Raise a Dream Team was invaluable to me in the growth of my business. I took away actionable strategies and tools and landed my first big sponsor within weeks of taking the program!

Charmaine and her Raise a Dream Team offer exceptional training and guidance not only to non-profit organizations, but to authors/entrepreneurs and small businesses who have a big goals and dreams. Charmaine spoke with my local Soroptimist Chapter about proven ways to raise funds for their organization. It made a tremendous impact on their fund-raising efforts.

Charmaine Hammond is a brilliant mentor, trainer and consultant. She listens closely and consistently meets me where I am at and provides a wealth of expertise. She rolls up her sleeves and together we get things done to move my dream forward in practical and powerful ways. I thank my lucky stars to have Charmaine accompany me every step of the way, generously offering her expertise, connections and her hard earned insights from having travelled this road herself as well as guiding many others.

The best thing I did to reach my fundraising goals was having Charmaine Hammond in my back pocket. Brainstorming sessions during our coaching calls have given me enough ideas to work on for the next 2 years! Charmaine is a treasure trove of ideas, advice and resources. I have attended the Raise A Dream workshops multiple times and jumped on any chance I could to hear her speak just so I can be reminded of the resources and avenues out there to secure funding. As a result of all of Charmaine’s help, I was able to secure $16,000 in sponsorship and grants in my first year alone.

Doing a strategy call with Charmaine literally blew my mind with all the potential ways I could maximize relationships with corporate sponsors. Charmaine is very caring, enthusiastic, creative, and incredibly resourceful. She gave me phenomenal advice on how to approach sponsors, establish relationships, being really specific with my asks, and how our relationship can benefit both of us. I highly recommend Charmaine if you want to know how to develop effective, long-term relationships with sponsors.
