Let’s scale your fundraising program to new heights

Some of the amazing organizations I’ve had the privilege of training

We work with people who want to make a difference: shelter the homeless, feed the hungry, stop abuse, eradicate poverty, make the arts, education, and quality healthcare available to all, and help children heal, grow, and thrive. We do this by equipping and empowering your staff, board, and volunteers to transform your fundraising so you can transform the world.

Let me keynote your next event

Hey, there! I’m Tammy Zonker.

I'm the Founder and President of Fundraising Transformed and host of The Intentional Fundraiser Podcast.

I’ve been a major gifts strategist and fundraising expert for almost 30 years. I’m also an Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) Certified Facilitator and an international speaker, having presented in Australia, Ireland, Italy, Canada, and the Netherlands.

I’ve led and trained thousands of nonprofit social service organizations, private schools, colleges and universities, and healthcare organizations to collectively raise nearly a billion dollars — including a single gift of $27.1M.

I am the Dean at the Institute for Charitable Giving and a Senior Advisor at Capital Campaign Pro. The AFP Greater Detroit Chapter honored me with the 2024 Dr. John S. Lore Award for Outstanding Fundraising Executive of the Year. I also serve on the Fundraising.AI Advisory Council and Forbes Advisory Council.

I have served as adjunct faculty at Indiana University and as a technical editor for Wiley Publishing’s third edition of “Fundraising for Dummies.”

When not sharing my expertise with the world, I enjoy spending time with my grandchildren and tending my butterfly garden.

I would love to learn more about the amazing work you do and explore how we can work together to take your fundraising to the next, next level.
