Rhea Wong book "Get That Money, Honey!: The No-Bullsh*t Guide to Raising More Money for Your Nonprofit" is available worldwide. Get That Money, Honey [Independently published (March 8, 2022) ISBN:8428635171 eBook: $9.99 Paperback $15.00 Audible version available] offers a proven framework to convert conversations into copious dollars, regardless of a non-profit's current budget. Rhea, a leading nonprofit consultant, reveals the exact methodology she used to transform Breakthrough New York from a meager $200,000 nonprofit into a multi-million-dollar organization. The secret is fairly simple: the right mindset, the right systems, and the right strategies. If you've struggled to raise money for your nonprofit, it's not your fault. You've probably been stuck in this loop: You believe you don't know how to raise money, so you feel like you can't do it (and you don't invest in the right systems), and the result is a self-fulfilling prophecy—you can't seem to raise money. The good news is this is a fixable problem. You'll learn the best strategies, thought work, and nonprofit-specific processes that will attract transformative dollars to your organization. Rhea is renowned for her ability to teach everyone—from fresh-faced founders to seasoned EDs—something about raising money. She draws from her 20+ years as a multi-million-dollar fundraiser and offers selective access to her coaching program, The Fundraiser Accelerator for the first time.
