The Business of Impact - How CEO’s, Boards & Business Leaders Rethink Philanthropy w/ Rob Tonus

Nonprofits and businesses both want to make a difference, but they often approach partnerships from different starting points. Charities seek funding out of necessity, while businesses balance philanthropy with brand and community goals. When these priorities collide, partnerships can become transactional rather than transformational. What could happen if both sides worked together with greater trust and a shared focus on impact? In this episode, we sit down with Rob Tonus, President of The Fundraising Company and a nonprofit leader with more than three decades of experience in the charitable sector. Rob works closely with smaller organizations that may not have the resources for a full-time fundraiser but still need the strategy and expertise to achieve their goals and expand their impact. Rob shares why nonprofit leaders need a stronger business mindset when it comes to sustainability, fundraising, and partnerships, and discusses the challenges many charities face today, from limited resources and donor expectations to the growing role of technology. We also explore how businesses can support nonprofits beyond financial contributions by offering leadership, strategy, and operational expertise to build stronger, more effective collaborations. If you’re a nonprofit leader, fundraiser, or business professional looking to build meaningful partnerships and increase your impact, this conversation offers practical insights on how to work together to create real change. 0:00 - Intro 02:13 - What is Impact? 03:37 - Why nonprofits workers need to put on a business mentality 05:33 - How Rob helps small organizations 07:33 - Challenges faced by nonprofits today 13:36 - Unique challenges with the charitable sector (cont.) 17:37 - Philanthropy and the business sector 20:25 - How businesses can build community & give back 22:22 - Determining which organizations to support? 23:32 - The impact of Rob’s work 30:58 - Importance of knowing your donors 34:45 - Nonprofits and technology 38:47 - What’s next or Rob 41:54 - Where to find Rob Visit Rob’s website - https://www.fundraising-co.ca/ Connect with Rob -   / robtonus   Hosted by Hilda Gan - ca.linkedin.com/in/hildagan Visit us at - peoplebrightconsulting.com Follow us LinkedIn - www.linkedin.com/company/pplbright Twitter - twitter.com/pplbright Facebook - www.facebook.com/pplbright Instagram - www.instagram.com/pplbright/ Hilda Gan is a sought-after expert on effective HR strategies, work culture enhancement, and employee engagement.
