Ten fundraising operators across Canada and the US. Three former EDs. Three CFREs. Built by Emily Bocking after watching too many smart people get blamed for systems they didn't break.
About Brazen
Campaigns from $750K to $150M. We've coached fundraisers through their worst seasons and their biggest wins.
Why Brazen exists
Brazen exists because the people who built it got tired of watching smart, capable people get blamed for the math not working. Three of us are former EDs. One still is. We've been the person who couldn't sleep before payroll. We've watched our own boards turn "fundraising is everyone's job" into nobody's. We built the firm we wished existed when we were in your chair — one that fixes the fire you called about, finds the system that started it, and stays in the room long enough to change it.

1:1 and group
For the meeting that scares you, the ask that's stuck, the team that's stalled.
The team
Three executive directors. Two fundraisers. Two project managers. Over a century of combined experience helping nonprofits. Everyone here has been in your chair — and stayed long enough to know what helps.
