I’m Matthew Brantner, CFRE
I founded Impact 9090 Consulting to work alongside nonprofit leaders who are doing important work and who need experienced guidance to grow their funding, strengthen their organization, and lead with more confidence.
I partner with you as a trusted advisor, bringing practical insight, strategic thinking, and 20+ years of hands-on experience directly to your team.
I've worked on every side of the mission: building and leading teams as Executive Director, raising millions in philanthropic support, managing boards, and founding a nonprofit organization that grew to nearly 150 staff and a $3 million operating budget. I understand the pressure you're under, and I know how to help.
I only take on a small number of engagements at a time, so I can be fully present for you and your mission.

How Can I Help You?
Leading a nonprofit organization is one of the hardest jobs there is. You're expected to be visionary, build the strategy, raise the funding, inspire your team, satisfy your board, and keep your mission front and center, but you don't have to do it alone. That's where I come in.
Executive Coaching
Whether you're new to your leadership role, wrestling with a problem that keeps you up at night, feeling like your organization has outgrown your skillset, or just burned out from carrying it all alone, I offer practical, experienced coaching built around you and the organization you're leading.

Fundraising Services
Fundraising is one of the most critical and most challenging parts of running a nonprofit organization. As a Certified Fund Raising Executive (CFRE), I bring globally recognized fundraising expertise to your organization. I can help you develop a comprehensive fundraising strategy, write grants, optimize your direct mail appeals, and use your CRM to identify and cultivate major gift prospects.

Interim Executive Director
If your organization is navigating a leadership transition and needs an experienced Executive Director to keep things moving in the meantime, I step in as an embedded partner. I learn your organization quickly, stabilize your team, maintain momentum with your funders and board, and stay fully engaged until the right permanent leader is in place.

Strategic Planning
A strategic plan is only as good as the process behind it. I facilitate a structured, inclusive approach that draws from your board, staff, donors, and broader organization community to build a plan you will actually use. From stakeholder surveys, donor interviews, and a facilitated planning retreat to a polished strategy document with implementation support - I'll guide you every step of the way.
All of the Above
If your organization needs a little of everything, or something that doesn't fit neatly into any one category, that's okay too. Most of my favorite engagements are a custom mix of services designed around exactly what you need, when you need it. Let's create something that fits.
