My name is Heather Karellas, and I’m a freelance writer, editor, and fundraiser. I help organizations gain clients and donors by writing strong, SEO-friendly content; by editing materials for flow and grammar; and by crafting fundraising appeals that tell your nonprofit’s story and entice donors to give generously.
