90-Day Fundraising and Partnership Strategy for a New Microschool

Live2Create Leadership Academy is a faith-centered, studio-based microschool serving middle school students through purpose, creativity, leadership, real-world learning, and personalized growth.

A strong fundraising and partnership strategy will allow us to expand access for families who believe in the model but cannot afford full tuition, strengthen our operating runway, invest in student experiences and staff, and build a more sustainable financial foundation for the Academy.

The volunteer's work will directly support our ability to serve students, fund scholarships, strengthen programming, onboard staff, and ensure that finances do not become the primary barrier between families and a learning environment that may be a better fit for their child.

Our organization has already established its mission, program model, tuition structure, fundraising goals, website, donor campaign, board of directors, and community relationships. We have also begun donor outreach, corporate partnership conversations, church partnership development, grassroots fundraising, and our SEED250 founding donor campaign.

This is not a project starting from zero. We are looking for someone who can assess what is already in motion, identify the highest-leverage opportunities, organize our prospect and revenue pipeline, and help us establish a disciplined fundraising cadence that our founder and board can immediately execute.

The founder will lead this project and provide access to current fundraising materials, budget and financial targets, donor campaign, partnership concepts, organizational overview, and existing prospect lists. We are prepared to meet consistently, provide timely feedback, and make decisions quickly so the volunteer can focus on building a system we can put into action immediately.
