Mastering Fundraising is a show for nonprofit leaders of all titles and all experience levels. Mastering Fundraising endeavors to cover the most important fundraising topics with the goal of helping the audience reach their full potential as fundraisers. Today on Mastering Fundraising, we’re honored to welcome Dr. Sheryl A. Bourgeois, President and CEO of the Saint John’s Health Center Foundation in Santa Monica, California. Since her appointment in May 2023, Dr. Bourgeois has led the Foundation through its 50th anniversary year and surpassed its ambitious 2024 fundraising goal, raising more than $41 million to advance cutting‑edge medical care, research, and patient services. With a background in philanthropy leadership and a passion for community-driven impact, she guides strategic initiatives that fuel innovation at Providence Saint John’s Health Center—supporting areas from oncology and neuroscience to women’s health and community wellness. In our conversation, we’ll explore what inspired her journey into healthcare philanthropy, how she attempts to reinvent organizations that she leads, builds a culture of philanthropy, and build strategic planning with proper reporting. Mastering Fundraising is a collaboration between Fulcrum Nonprofit Leadership and The Five Tool Fundraiser. #fundraising#masteringfundraising#development @advancement #charity#nonprofit#nonprofitleader#nonprofitleadership#nonprofits @FulcrumNonprofitLeadership @The5ToolFundraiser
