Your donors give more
when someone earns the ask.
One to One helps Canadian charities run capital campaigns, major gift programs, and strategic fundraising. Every engagement is personal. Every donor is treated like the relationship matters, because it does.
We work with charities that are ready to grow their revenue but don't yet have the internal capacity to run a fully professional campaign on their own. If this sounds like where you are today, let's start a conversation.
You have the drive to raise the funds your hospice needs, but you also need an experienced leader to plan and guide the campaign—someone who can help your community understand the importance and value of having a hospice close to home.
Donor interest in environmental stewardship is growing, but converting that interest into major gifts and campaign commitments requires more than passion. It requires a plan.
You are ready to advance your fundraising, but finding someone with the skills to deliver results has been challenging. An experienced fundraising consultant can be a more effective solution than hiring staff—providing immediate leadership to keep your campaign moving forward.
Demand for your services is rising, new opportunities are emerging, and your mission has outgrown your current capacity. You're ready to expand your charity's impact, and you know growth requires a bold step forward. Bringing in an experienced fundraising consultant can help you navigate that next stage—managing risk, guiding strategy, and positioning your organization for sustainable, long-term success.
Your community is generous, and your project is meaningful. What's missing is a fundraising strategy that honours your values and motivates your donors to give at the level you need.
Every service is built around the same principle: donors give more when they feel personally connected to a cause. We create that connection.
Multi-million dollar campaigns run from feasibility to close.
Identifying, cultivating, and soliciting your most significant donors.
Planned giving in Canada has grown over the past 10 years, with more Canadians including charities in their Wills and a rising number of significant estate gifts.
Appeals designed to grow retention and deepen donor relationships year over year.
A fundraising roadmap your board and staff can actually execute.
Confidential donor interviews before you commit to a campaign.
Step-in fundraising leadership while you hire or during a transition.
Find out exactly why your fundraising has stalled and how to fix it.
When a capital campaign has momentum, or a major donor needs cultivation right now, the window doesn't stay open while HR posts a job. An experienced fundraising consultant can start immediately, no onboarding, no learning curve, no ramp-up time before they're useful.
A full-time development director costs significantly more than their salary once you account for benefits, vacation, sick days, and severance. With One to One, the terms are clear upfront: a defined scope, a defined timeline, and a fee that covers the work. Nothing more.
When One to One leaves, you own everything. The relationships One to One built are yours to continue. The next campaign starts from a stronger foothold.
At consulting firms, the partner sells the work and the associate delivers it. With One to One, the person you talk to in the consultation is the person doing the cultivation visits and sitting across the table from your major donors. That's not an accident. It's the whole point.
Every engagement starts with a free conversation. No proposal until Steven understands your situation.
Book a free consultation"As President of Audi Canada, I had the opportunity to work closely with Steven through our national partnership with Best Buddies Canada. From the outset, his leadership stood out. He had a presence in every meeting—clear, confident, and persuasive—and he made everyone in the room understand why inclusion for people with Special Needs truly matters.
Steven didn't just work with me and my national team; he understood early on that engaging our local Audi dealers was essential. He travelled across the country to meet them personally, and got dealers involved in their communities and created new community partnerships that strengthened the overall mission of inclusion.
Our three-year partnership with Best Buddies was truly rewarding and meaningful because it supported a segment of Canada's population that needed a voice in schools, at work, and everyday life. Steven made it happen."
Steven Pinnock founded One to One Fundraising & Consulting on a conviction most consultants get backwards: donors don't give to organizations — they give to people, causes, and relationships they believe in.
With years in the nonprofit sector, Steven has helped hospices, hospitals, museums, libraries, environmental causes, and faith communities across Canada build fundraising programs that outlast any single campaign. He doesn't just raise money.
When you engage One to One, you work directly with Steven. No junior staff. No handoffs. He integrates with your team, respects the relationships your organization has spent years building, and brings the same care and attention to every cultivation or ask visit.
