I enjoy mentoring college students. I usually lean more than I share and always gain more than I give.
The experience has caused me to reflect on my own college years. There were three leaders in particular whom I now realize were reaching out to me. They were mentors, but when I now see what opportunities they presented, I realize that I failed to see them — I failed to seize the opportunity!

Looking for Jeff? You'll find him either on the lake, laughing with good friends, or helping nonprofits develop to their full potential.
Jeff believes that successful fundraising is built on a bedrock of relevant, consistent messaging; sound practices; the nurturing of relationships; and impeccable stewardship. And that organizations that adhere to those standards serve as beacons to others that aspire to them. The Bedrocks & Beacons blog will provide strategic information to help nonprofits be both.
Jeff has more than 25 years of nonprofit leadership experience and is a member of the NonProfit PRO Editorial Advisory Board.
