Testimonials
Brooke Stanton, Fundraising Officer, William Clarke College, NSW, Australia 2010
I just wanted to personally touch base and say thank you so much for presenting at the FIA conference. Your passion and enthusiasm for fundraising was contagious. I attended your Masterclass and was inspired. As a result, I then attended the two other sessions you hosted after that.
I have been a marketing manager for some time but this was my first time at FIA and your presentations over the duration of the conference were the highlight for me. I certainly made this known in my conference evaluation.
Alanna Wall, Director, Education: CentrePoint, 2009 Workshop Evaluation
“Guy, it was a pleasure to attend your course. I particularly appreciated the sound educational principles and techniques you use to get your subject matter across to the people in a relevant fashion. It can be quite tricky to find experts who are engaging speakers and who also use adult learning approaches, but you did so effectively and seamlessly.”
Jeanie Seto, UNICEF
“Another outstanding workshop Guy, so say the evaluations from delegates of the Major Donor Clinic and Fundraising Forum. I have received nothing but positive feedback, and want to thank you on behalf of UNICEF International for helping us lead our training session in Istanbul, Turkey. Your words definitely motivated everyone on what they should be doing when they get back home.”
Marguerite De Freitas, Manager: SAIT Polytechnic
“I feel that I should be thanking you .. for the great insight into fund development, the clarity and passion with which you presented the information, and the higher level of understanding that you gave us all.”
Cynthia Quigley, Manager: 2008 AFP Toronto Fundraising Congress
“Guy, we have just completed your evaluations … make sure you have a glass of wine when you read these. You were very well received”
Tiffany Hardy, Advancement Officer, University of Southern Queensland, Australia 2010
Thank you so much for taking so much time with us at the conference. We were really blessed to have you come and speak to us, I really enjoyed your master class, and your other presentations. I hope to put to use at least a few of your ideas and concepts and do my best to implement some changes into our office. I found your presentations very informative and easy to listen to.

Guy is an excellent speaker. No one was lost or confused and everyone was engaged. I could listen to Guy for days.
Monte Greenshields, General Manager, Resource Development, Calgary Humane Society, Calgary, Canada 2010
Guy, thanks for your presentation this evening at the Fund Development Plus workshop. Your work is superb.
Alberto Ghione, Student, University of Bologna Masters in Fundraising program, Forli, Italy, May 2010
Guy has been my Major Donor professor at the Master in Fundraising, and my mentor during my internship at SAIT Polytechnic in Calgary, Canada. Let me me say that he is simply one of the best professors and fundraisers I have ever met. It’s hard to find someone that can unite passion and professionalism, but this is Guy: he really believes in what he does, and he does it very well. If he is in town for a conference, absolutely don’t miss him! And, let me also say that he is becoming an excellent italian speaker…” May 19, 2010
