Dan Johnson

Nonprofit Launch Coach, Next Level Nonprofits

City, ST

Dan Johnson is a 4x nonprofit founder, former impact evaluator, and nonprofit launch coach who has dedicated his career to helping new organizations get off the ground and raise the money they need to grow. He started his first nonprofit as a freshman in college and grew it to 10,000 volunteers nationwide in just three years — learning through experience what works and what doesn't when you're building something from nothing. He has since raised nearly $4 million for new nonprofits and helped more than 30 nonprofit leaders launch sustainable organizations. Through Next Level Nonprofits, Dan teaches founders how to craft donor pitches that actually convert, build early fundraising systems, and develop the confidence to ask for money in a way that feels authentic rather than transactional.
