An Interview With Jennifer Marrapese, Executive Director, Northeast Sustainable Energy Association

FS: How would you describe your fundraising philosophy?
JM: It is all about relationships! It is about striking a chord and finding a match in core values and objectives. The key is to develop and maintain rapports in mutually respectful and beneficial ways. Ask donors and sponsors what exchanges they value in investing in an organization [and] in what ways would they like to support, be appreciated and kept abreast of the organization.
