Claire Axelrad

Fundraising Coach

Philanthropy, not fundraising. Passionate, not forgettable. A journey, not a destination. Claire will be your guide, so you can be your donor’s.After working briefly as an attorney, and then in legal publishing, I decided a better way (for me) to help people was through philanthropy. After a 30-year career as a frontline leader helping raise millions of dollars Claire is now a sought out thought leader and fundraising coach.

After using Auctria for many auction fundraisers, she joined the team to help others boost their auction fundraising for many wonderful causes. Auctria has been used for auctions and events raising over one billion dollars.
