Fundraising Practioner-Salary

Question

How much is a starting salary to medium salary of a fudnraising practioner.

For those with fundraising practioners as careers: do you like it?

Answer 1

It depends on the size of the organization, the size of the budget and the amount of money to be raised. The person in charge of fundraising at an animal shelter in a small town isn't going to make anything near what the person in charge of fundraising for the national office of, say, the American Red Cross, is going to make. Your salary could be anything from the low 20s to -- anything!

Also, fundraisers usually have an area of expertise: corporate relations, individual giving, foundations, special events, etc.
