Who am I and why should you listen to me? 

My name is Rachel Muir and I am just as passionate about making the world a better place as you are. 

I’ve started and run my own nonprofit, raised over 10 million and was featured on Oprah, CNN and the Today show.

It took a lot of inspiration and a truck-load of guts to get to where I am today. 

I have helped thousands of fundraisers land big gifts, delight their donors, and love their jobs…all because I use proven systems and methods.  Because nobody wants theory!
