Bill Myatt
Founder and CEO

Bill has either led or been a member of fundraising teams that have been required to raise as much as $25 million in one year or as little as $300,000. He prides himself on a unique ability to “get his hands dirty” and do the challenging work required to communicate appropriately with donors and help nonprofits grow their revenue stream.

Here are a few highlights from his career:

• Personally closed a $1 million gift in 2021 for the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago – toward a total annual fundraising goal of $2.2 million.
• Partnered with the Dean of University Libraries at Loyola University Chicago to facilitate a $1.5 million fundraising campaign for Rare Books and Special Collections.
• First gift officer in the 120-year history of Catholic Extension to raise over $1 million from donors in his portfolio in a fiscal year. Raised over $1.2 million in total that year.
• With just a 3-month runway, helped lead a $1 million fundraising campaign for the National Hellenic Museum 2022 Gala.
• Successfully coached senior executives and board members at large organizations in the work of cultivating relationships with 7- and 8-figure donors.

Prior to entering the world of professional fundraising, Bill worked in faith-based and academic settings. He holds a PhD in Constructive Theology from Loyola University Chicago and was active as a scholar and professor for some time.
