Changing the world one event at a time.

I have worked with A.J. for almost a decade and she has consistently gone above and beyond my expectations. Not only is she incredibly easy to work with, but is also thorough and extremely creative. I cannot say enough about the asset of having A.J. on your team.

A.J. Steinberg and Queen Bee fundraising have been a real game changer with our nonprofit’s events. She has given us tools and resources that we were sorely lacking and is available whenever we need consulting advice on upcoming events. I wouldn’t do an event without her on our team.

AJ helped our committee by providing all the essential tools needed, and the ‘lady-power’ to effectively pull off my first ever silent auction. The result was phenomenal. It exceeded my board’s expectations. Everyone had a great time and the Foundation realized a solid financial gain.

I hope to learn more from her in the future through buying her books and having the privilege to work with her more often.

I admit I am not a big fan of special events because I’ve seen so many organizations spend too much staff time, volunteer effort, and money on them. So, if you want to turn around that cycle in your organization, you need to bring in the “Queen of Fundraising Events,” AJ Steinberg. I’ve been so impressed with her organizational skills, creative mind, and high-energy dedication to a successful event that I am starting to think it’s not the events that fail, it’s the people planning …
