EP#286 Beyond the Dollar: The Inner Voice of Fundraising | Jeff Schreifels

What if fundraising was never about money? In this episode of The Quiet Warrior Show, host and producer Dr. Tom Dutta sits down with Jeff Schreifels, Principal and Owner of Veritus Group, internationally renowned fundraising expert, keynote speaker, bestselling author, and pioneer of relationship-centred major gifts strategy. With over 30 years in nonprofit leadership, Jeff has helped organisations like St. Jude's, United Way, Seton Hall University, March of Dimes, American Cancer Society, GLAAD, and New York City Ballet increase revenue while strengthening donor relationships through what he calls the Veritus Way. But beneath the strategy lies something deeper. Jeff shares how listening to his inner voice at four to five pivotal life moments altered the trajectory of his life, shaped his leadership philosophy, and redefined what legacy truly means. This is a conversation about risk, intuition, leadership, and why the future of nonprofits depends on relationships over transactions. Learn more about Jeff and the Veritus Way at veritusgroup.com.
