Join us and help us celebrate St. Patrick's day with THIS St. Patrick...KIRBY! 😅Meet & Greet booksigning over the lunch hour!
Remember 5th grade? When you were bold enough to ask for what you wanted, curious enough to ask “why” a hundred times. Resilient enough to bounce back from every tumble? Turns out, the traits of a 5th grader are exactly what you need to become a fundraising powerhouse.
In Fundraise Like a 5th Grader, Patrick Kirby takes you on a laugh-out-loud journey to rediscover the fearless, creative, and optimistic mindset you had at age 10. Packed with hilarious anecdotes, practical tips, and real-world fundraising wisdom, this book will transform how you think about connecting with donors, rallying your team, and making a lasting impact.
From embracing boldness to building authentic relationships, each chapter dives into a kid inspired trait that will revolutionize your approach to fundraising—without the boring buzzwords or cookie-cutter strategies.
Whether you’re a nonprofit newbie or a seasoned pro, this book is your permission slip to stop playing it safe and start fundraising with the fearlessness of a 5th grader.
Because the next big “yes” is just around the corner—you just have to ask like a kid who believes anything is possible.
....................................................................
Patrick Kirby is what happens when you mix equal parts fundraising expertise, caffeinated enthusiasm, and an unshakable belief that nonprofits deserve better than burnout and budget
gaps. As the Founder of Do Good Better Consulting, Patrick has made it his life’s mission to help nonprofits fundraise smarter, build stronger donor relationships, and actually enjoy asking
for money (yes, really).
He’s the author of the Amazon bestseller Fundraise Awesomer! A Practical Guide to Staying Sane While Doing Good, host of The Official Do Good Better Podcast, and loather of the phrase “we’ve always done it that way.”
Patrick’s fundraising street cred comes from nearly two decades in the trenches, including his time as Senior Director of Development at the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and Chief Development Officer at the Anne Carlsen Center. He’s worked with organizations of every shape and size, helping them raise millions without losing their minds in the process.
