I have worked with Brigitte Mertling on a number of projects over the past 20 years and would not hesitate to call her one of the finest writers in philanthropy today. Brigitte can take the most complex subject and spell it out in an easy flowing manner for charitable causes. She is the consummate professional in her approach to clients and handling of their projects. Brigitte is one of the most ethical professionals I have ever worked with, and her ability to interpret and articulate a client’s Case for Support is second to none. Add to that her intimate knowledge of all aspects of fundraising makes for a communications/fundraising colleague who is hard to beat.
