About

Hello I’m Wanja!

I believe in a world where thoughtful action drives progress, and strategy is guided not just by data but by creativity, compassion, and genuine connection.

With over a decade of experience in fundraising and engagement; I specialize in building meaningful relationships between people and organizations, that unlock potential and drive impact. My work’s focus is to design and execute on strategies that raise millions in support of mission-driven causes, and cultivate emerging leaders with a care for community.

From securing major and planned gifts to stewarding grants, leading alumni engagement, and developing associate boards, my approach is both sunny and strategic; grounded in partnership and driven by results. Nothing energizes me more than helping organizations clarify their vision, rally their communities, and raise the resources they need to thrive.

Growing up and living across three countries (Kenya, the UK, and the United States) I offer a global lens on philanthropy, with a deep understanding of international giving trends and the cultural fluency to navigate diverse philanthropic landscapes with ease and authenticity.

Together, we can help organizations deepen relationships, expand their reach, and fund the future they envision: through strategy rooted in empathy, creativity, and cross-cultural insight.
