“I have had the privilege to work with Christie at our Heart of the House Gala for over 10 years. Each year she comes with new and fresh ideas and has helped our non-profit surpass our revenue goal in our live auction and our fund in need appeal. Her knowledge of fundraising and her pure tenacious drive of the night shines through in success each year after year. I cannot imagine working with anyone else.”

“Our experience with Christie King and her team has been exceptional. From our initial calls when she offered sound advice and helped us work through our auction lineup to the night of the event when Christie could read our audience perfectly and pivot to ensure we didn’t leave any money on the table. She truly becomes a part of your team. We appreciate her professional approach, and her results speak for themselves.”

“Working with C King Benefits has been a true investment in my fundraising and development career! The amount of fundraising knowledge I have gained by working with Christie in one-on-one sessions is priceless. Christie has years of experience that show from the first meeting, and she continues to enlighten me with new skills with every conversation. We doubled what we normally raise at our gala the first year we worked with C King Benefits. Christie takes true care and attention to each nonprofit she works with; it’s heartwarming to be cared for by someone equally committed to your organization. Take the plunge and invest in yourself and your development team by working with Christie King!”

I never have to worry about is the quality and preparedness of you and your team and that is HUGE!

“Christie King and her team have the ability to create energy and passion for mission-driven giving. I have worked with Christie at three different organizations with very different missions. Regardless of the mission, Christie is able to gain a deep understanding of the organization's needs and conveys that understanding to hundreds of people at our events. The result? Year-over-year increases in giving.”
