What We Do

Support That Meets You Where You Are

No two organizations are alike — and we wouldn't want them to be. We take the time to understand your story before we ever suggest a solution.

Strategic Planning & Organizational Growth

We sit down with your team, listen to where you want to go, and help you build a path to get there — one that actually fits your organization and the community you serve.

Fundraising & Development

Funding your mission shouldn't feel like a constant uphill battle. We help you build real relationships with donors and funders who believe in what you're doing.

Partnership Rooted in Real Experience

Giving Mind Consulting was built on a belief that nonprofits deserve a partner who genuinely understands the weight of the work — not just the strategy behind it.

Amy Skiba has spent more than a decade inside mission-driven organizations — leading teams, building programs, securing funding, and advocating for patients at the highest levels, including with the FDA.

She knows what it feels like to do more with less, to care deeply about outcomes, and to show up for communities that are counting on you. That's the heart behind every engagement.

Our Process

How It Works

Many nonprofit leaders have never hired a consultant before — and that's completely okay. Here's what working together actually looks like, from first conversation to lasting impact.

01

Discovery Conversation

Every engagement begins with a complimentary consultation. We'll discuss your organization's goals, challenges, and opportunities — and determine where support can create the greatest impact.

02

Assessment & Recommendations

After learning about your organization, I'll develop a customized approach aligned with your mission, priorities, capacity, and budget — with clear recommendations and a proposed scope of work.

03

Strategic Partnership

Once we agree on a plan, we'll work together to implement solutions — whether that's strategic planning, fundraising, advocacy, program growth, board engagement, or AI integration.

04

Sustainable Impact

The goal isn't simply to complete a project — it's to strengthen your organization's long-term capacity. You'll leave with practical tools, strategies, and systems that support continued growth.
