Coach - Consultant

Ron Frey founded Frey Resource Group to serve non-profit organizations with excellence and effectiveness. With a focus squarely on producing income growth, the mission of Frey Resource Group is to empower leaders for extraordinary success in fundraising. We work with organizations that bring hope, healing and transformation to lives and communities around the world. We believe success is achieved by upholding the highest standards of integrity, stewardship and fruitfulness in ministry. We encourage organizations to achieve their highest potential in fundraising through innovation and personal effectiveness.

Our aim is to combine the art of creative and inspiring communication with the science of donor development to be successful at raising the money you need to grow! We do it in a donor-centric way that builds long-term relationships. While many organizations focus their fundraising on “getting the gift,” we focus on winning the “heart of the giver” so they may experience the joy of giving to your cause over the course of many years. On behalf of our clients, we aim to inspire radical generosity that changes lives, communities and nations.

What is the Spiritual Condition of your Donor’s Heart

Posted on: 15 Oct 2021

The book of Acts records the story of Simon the sorcerer, a man regarded by many to possess divine power. When Philip preached the kingdom of God in Samaria, Simon was dazzled by all the signs and miracles that he saw and followed Philip wherever he went. But his heart was not open to receiving the truth behind all those miracles. He could not accept the kingdom (lordship) of God. Later, when he observed Peter and John laying their hands on people to receive the Holy Spirit, he coveted that power for himself. So he did what he would naturally […]

How To Grow Giver’s Hearts

Posted on: 25 Jul 2019

It was a cold and clear Sunday morning last winter in Portland. We exited our church building having just heard a great sermon which touched on themes of social justice and generosity. On the sidewalk at the foot of the church steps was a Central American woman with four young children, and a sign that said “Hungry – please help.” What a set up! Having just heard the sermon, sung songs and prayed prayers, we were confronted with a real, live, opportunity to immediately respond to a hurting family. What would each one of us actually do? Give her money? […]

What if God never intended you to have a life purpose?

Posted on: 24 Sep 2018

I heard a speaker at church shock the congregation with this statement: “God has not given you a purpose in life!” You could hear a pin drop as we waited for the next line, and he repeated it for emphasis. “You do not have a God-given life purpose!” As he continued his comments about how attempts to discover our own life purpose is an unbiblical concept, I found myself profoundly in disagreement with his statements. But then he made his point: God has a purpose. You have an assignment! My mind immediately opened up to what he was really saying. […]
