My single service -the Wonderkeeper story

One service. Countless ways to strengthen donor relationships

Wildlife conservation organizations are filled with remarkable people.

Field biologists. Volunteers. Rangers. Researchers. Educators. Longtime supporters. Monthly donors. Legacy donors.

Each has a story worth preserving.

Each has a moment when something in the natural world captured their heart—and changed the direction of their life.

Those stories are among your organization’s greatest, and most underused, assets.

My work is simple.

I interview the people you select and then write their stories for your organization to share, celebrate, and preserve.

That’s it.

One service.

One purpose.

1. Before we talk about conservation at all – tell me a little about yourself. Where did you grow up, and what did the place feel like?

2. Who are the people in your life that shaped the way you see the world?

3. Is there a place – somewhere specific – that has meant more to you than anywhere else?

4. Can you remember the first time you really saw- really noticed -the natural world? Not just appreciated, but felt something shift?

5. If you could put someone in the middle of the place or moment that first captured you – what would they see, hear, feel?

6. Was there a moment when you went from supporting this conservation organization to being someone who was genuinely invested?

7. Is there something this organization does – or a way they do it – that you haven’t seen anywhere else?

8. When did it first occur to you that you wanted to do something that would last beyond your own lifetime?

9. When you imagine what this gift might make possible – fifty years from now, a hundred years from now – what do you see?

10. Is there something you want future generations to be able to experience – something you’d hate for them to miss?
