Hey! I’m Maddie 👋

Once a Fundraiser. Now a Writer. Co-Founder of Kind Word

I spent many years in-house at various nonprofit organizations in Australia running fundraising programs—from finding forever homes for abandoned animals to helping sick kids smile.

In 2017, I started my own business as a Fundraising Copywriter and I now live in North Carolina. Every day, I write the kind of copy that’ll break your heart—then put all the pieces back together with so much warmth, you’ll be left beaming. 

That’s how I help nonprofits raise boatloads of funds.
