Client Testimonials

"I hold Teisha in the highest regard having worked with her when I was the CEO of the University of Tasmania Foundation and then as the General Manager of the Menzies Institute for Medical Research. In fact, one of the first things I did when I moved from the Foundation to Menzies was recruit Teisha as our Advancement Manager with responsibility for fundraising and community engagement. Teisha is an extremely well qualified and experienced practitioner who is driven to achieve results. I find that there are far too many fundraisers who understand the theory but have very limited understanding or ability to apply that in the real world and deliver results. Teisha is not one of those people."
Mark Bennett, CEO, University of Tasmania Foundation

"I had the opportunity of working with Teisha Archer in helping Colony 47, a not-for-profit organisation, develop its strategic thinking around its fundraising focus, objectives and approach. Teisha brought invaluable insights, relevant experience and practical recommendations and was generous with her time and expertise on a pro bono basis. I have no hesitation in recommending Teisha as a strategic thinker with a grounded approach who would bring strong personal values and integrity to all her clients and in all her interactions."
Graham Flower, Board Chair, Colony 47

"Teisha is not only a leading expert in her field of philanthropy and social enterprise, she is also an outstanding communicator, collaborative leader and high level relationship builder."
Hon. David Bartlett, Chair, Brave Foundation
