Bringing Fundraising Success to Your Community: The Team Kat & Mouse Approach

In the ever-evolving landscape of nonprofit fundraising, adaptability and innovation are key. Since our inception in 2021, Team Kat & Mouse has been at the forefront of empowering nonprofit organizations with the tools, tactics, and training necessary to not only meet but exceed their fundraising goals.

Our Journey So Far

Founded by seasoned nonprofit professionals Sharon Kitroser and Amy Mauser, Team Kat & Mouse was born out of a shared vision: to build highly effective fund development teams that deliver and surpass what is needed to grow an organization's mission. With over 50 years of combined experience, our team understands the pressures nonprofit leaders face daily. We've walked in your shoes, and we know that hitting your fund development goals can be the difference between delivering on your organization's mission or falling short.

One of the highlights of our work has been partnering with NonProfits First in Palm Beach County, where we've delivered our signature Nimble Fundraising curriculum to a wide range of nonprofit professionals. This hands-on, practical training equips teams with adaptable strategies that work in real-time and in real-life. The good news? We can bring this same curriculum directly to your organization or association, no matter where you're located. Whether you're looking to energize your staff, your board, or your volunteers, Nimble Fundraising gives you a powerful foundation to move your mission forward.

What We've Been Teaching

Our approach is rooted in customized, scalable training curricula designed to meet your organization's unique needs. We offer a range of services, including:

· Fundraising Training Courses – from hiring the best people to storytelling that wraps potential donors in your mission. And of course-Fundraising 101 with special modules on Sponsorships, Events, Individual Fundraising and Grants.

· Board Development Training – so every board member knows how to support fundraising

· Leadership and Sales Training – equipping your team with confidence and communication skills

· Volunteer Training – so your whole team is pulling in the same direction

Our training isn’t just a one-and-done. We provide ongoing support through regular office hours and coaching to ensure learning turns into results.

Why Summertime Is the Smart Season to Learn

Summertime often brings a slight slowdown in day-to-day nonprofit operations—which makes it the ideal time to focus on professional development. Before the chaos of Q4 campaigns kicks in, summer gives your team breathing room to sharpen their skills, align on goals, and build the strategies that will power your most important fundraising quarter. By investing in education now, you’ll be ready to hit the ground running when the fall giving season begins.
