In this episode of Leadership Lenses, we sit down with Rabbi Ben Gonsher, a veteran fundraiser with more than 25 years of experience helping Jewish schools and nonprofits build sustainable philanthropic support.

Rabbi Gonsher digs into why fundraising feels so uncomfortable and how the work gets easier when you stop treating fundraising like a necessary distraction, and start treating donors like partners. We talk about relationship-based fundraising, moves management, and simple systems that help leaders stay consistent, follow through, and build trust over time.

If fundraising has always felt awkward, stressful, or unclear, this conversation will help you reframe it and walk away with practical ways to start building stronger donor relationships.
