Welcome to Mary's List

Mary's List was created by Mary Gregory, a Program Officer at Pacific Foundation Services, as a way for non-profits to connect with qualified consultants and for consultants to connect with each other. With consultants on the list and new job postings every week, PFS offers Mary's List OnLine as a valuable service to the non-profit community in San Francisco and as a communication hub for consultants.

How It Works

If you are a non-profit organization seeking part-time/full-time paid consulting help (not volunteer help!) with some aspect of fundraising or organizational development, you may post job opportunities for free to the Job Listings page, which is accessible to all the consultant members (as of July 2008 there are 58 active consultant members).

If you are a consultant in fundraising, organizational development, graphics, communications, etc., you may become a member by paying a low annual fee of $85 (less than the value of an hour of your time). As a member, you have unlimted access to the Job Listings and to the Message Board. (From January - June 2008, there have been 26 jobs posted).

This service saves time for both the non-profit and the consultant. A non-profit doesn't have to search through long lists of consultants, seeking one with the right qualifications. Consultants have a convenient place to look for work that fits their skills, and they contact the non-profits directly about jobs for which they are qualified and available.

Please Note: Neither Mary's List Online nor Pacific Foundation Services endorses or recommends the consultants who sign up with Mary's List Online. We are simply trying to provide an efficient way to match non-profit needs and consultant services. Non-profits must be sure to do their own screening of potential employees.

Free Services: Occasionally, Mary’s List is made aware of consultants who are willing to work for free or reduced rates in order to build their client list. Their names and email addresses are listed on the Resources for Non-Profits page, if we have recently heard of a person or persons). Again, interviewing and hiring them is up to each non-profit—Mary’s List makes no recommendations.

We hope that you enjoy Mary's List and all its features. If you have any questions or comments, please send us an email.
