About Phil-Com's President, Tracy Vanderneck, MSM, CFRE
I care about the mission and people. It is that simple. I care about helping nonprofits be able to deliver on their missions, whether that means working to save the environment, help homeless children, or bring art to the community. And I am uniquely positioned to be able to help!
I have over twenty years of experience in fundraising, business development, and sales. I hold a Master of Science in Management (MSM) with a concentration in Non-Profit Leadership, a Graduate Certificate in Teaching & Learning (CTL), and am a Certified Fund Raising Executive (CFRE). In 2010 I was certified in Disaster Public Relations and In-Kind Donations with the American Red Cross. In 2017 I became an Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) Master Trainer.
I have worked on leadership teams for organizations with budgets from $1 million to $15 million, in fundraising, public relations, and volunteer recruitment since 2006. I have experience in annual campaigns, grant writing, capital campaigns, strategic planning, development planning, board recruitment and training, prospect identification and screening, moves management, database RFPs and implementations, in-kind donations, event planning and management, volunteer recruitment and management, third-party fundraising, case statements, gift acceptance policies, naming opportunities, public relations, and marketing materials. I have in-depth experience with analyzing gift data and trends and using the resulting information to plan future activities.
When I work with clients, I always work to ensure that our activities are in line with the organization's mission and fit within its strategic plan. My current clients include those in the health, social service, and environmental sectors.
I am currently the Vice Chair of the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) Southwest Florida Chapter and am a member of the Content Advisory Committee For AFP Global. I am a regular contributor to NonProfit PRO.
