Wendy is a wonderful facilitator and consultant. She has helped us in many ways – leading us through two strategic planning cycles, nurturing cross-department collaboration, and facilitating board and leadership retreats. Wendy’s knowledge of the broader health ecosystem and community connections has been invaluable. We are a better organization because of her support.

Eli Gelardin
Marin Center for Independent Living
"Wendy helped us more clearly define our vision and goals as we developed and launched our new family foundation. Wendy also designed and facilitated a series of peer-support, capacity building meetings for our inaugural, diverse cohort of women non-profit leaders. The leaders loved working with Wendy; her collaborative, honest, open and fun style helped leaders feel comfortable to share, learn and grow. Wendy helped to make our first year of funding a success!”

Chief Executive Officer, Village Fund Marin
"Wendy Todd was the first consultant I thought of when I knew we needed help straight-away following the October 2017 Sonoma County wildfires. Wendy jumped in with gusto, expertise, and compassion to help us through a new and critical time at Community Foundation Sonoma County. Wendy was instrumental in planning and facilitating a county-wide leadership, convening soon after the fires, and in developing our grant-making strategy for long-term fire recovery for the Sonoma County Resilience Fund. Wendy’s work will leave a legacy to the foundation for years to come as we implement a bold, thoughtful, and equitable approach to our community’s recovery and rebuild.”
