Steffanie Bonner

When we believe in the work we do, we do it from a different core perspective. Our work becomes bigger than ourselves; more than a paycheck or a nine-to-five; our work becomes so meaningful to who we are that it becomes deeply embedded into who we are as individuals.

I specialize in consulting nonprofits on capital campaigns, fundraising, and organizational development so they can successfully serve more clients, operate financially sound budgets, and implement successful programs.

CASE STUDIES

TTCU CARES FOUNDATION

I created a foundation for TTCU Federal Credit Union where I increased revenue by 152% by launching the “Classroom Hero Grant Program” to help teachers suffering from financial hardship. 

TULSA REGIONAL CHAMBER

I led two capital campaigns and oversaw the membership department where my team increased new membership revenue by $264,000. We secured $8MM to fund the economic growth in Tulsa.

TRINITY WOODS

Formerly Oklahoma Methodist Manor

I launched and successfully completed two capital campaigns to build a new healthcare center and a new Alzheimer’s unit. We raised $8 million and exceeded our goal by $400,000.

“Imagine one-of-a-kind services critical for the care of vulnerable children without a significant, dependable, annual revenue stream. Steffanie Bonner’s development expertise and acumen set the course to stabilize this condition by securing a new, recurrent funding source that exceeded $200,000 a year and reengaging lapsed donors who subsequently increased their giving while she led a successful board capital campaign. Her soft and technical skills have repeatedly positioned similar organizations for meaningful, long-term success. Without a doubt, she moves organizations forward.”

“Steffanie is a delight to work with.  She is knowledgeable about the requirements for non-profit organizations and very responsive to her clients.  Her ability to synthesize complex concepts into an easy-to-understand format is noteworthy.”
