"Mrs Anna Rottenecker has proved to be a very hardworking and diligent professional. She has shown a great level of commitment and initiative. Her ability to analyse various institutional policy options and orientations has also been very valuable to the organisation."

"Anna has a profound understanding of challenges faced by access-to-justice, rule-of-law and advocacy organisations. Together with her knowledge in organisational management, and coupled with her long experience in fundraising for civil society organisations working on all issues of detention and the protection of fundamental human rights, she has been a real added value to our work. Our cooperation was supported by Anna’s warm personality, her ability to listen and her continuous motivation to try more and reach further. We are thankful for her support and will hopefully be able to cooperate again in the future, and we can only recommend her work to others."

"Anna does not only have indisputable technical skills in non-profit financial management and fundraising, she is also a strategic thinker with a high ability to adapt. By advising our nascent NGO’s fundraising strategy and setting up our first ever financial management tool, Anna played a critical role in the very early stages of Resolve Foundation which is now a reputable Hong-Kong based NGO in the field of human rights and community empowerment. "

"Anna was a great source of advice and had an empowering way of working as well, especially in supporting me as a first-time CEO and Founder."

"I strongly recommend Anna to any charity willing to move to its next stage of development. Anna helped me to structure our fundraising strategy, create financial monitoring tools, apply for grants, prepare for pitching and a lot more. She is not only extremely efficient and knowledgeable, but also a great person to work with. Dynamic, optimistic and very smart. She made it possible for Uplifters to transition from a 1-person organisation to a staffed NGO with a clear vision, funding and proper governance."

"What is extremely appreciated with Anna is her high level of professionalism and commitment in supporting civil society organisations towards their fundraising objective(s). She does not only deliver what she has been hired for in a timely and appropriate manner, but she is also able to provide additional advice to your organization when your application needs further improvement in order to be successful. Her comments are never judgmental but always very meaningful and constructive. Our experience with Anna has been a success undoubtedly, but also a pleasure thanks to her easy going and nice personality."

"She did her work with very much commitment and enthusiasm, and was able to engage new donors and motivate current donors to increase their financial support. As a special accomplishment, I would like to highlight her establishing of the processes for the foundation fundraising. Anna did her job with a high level of professionalism and reliability and her innovative ideas profited our organisation."

"Anna assisted me as a consultant expert on different key development strategies. She helped with very useful tools and exercises and was extremely efficient and clear, and she was also a great adviser and supporter.  I strongly recommend Anna to any charity willing to improve strategy with professional and logical help."

"Anna a travaillé pour nous sur un diagnostic sur notre recherche de fonds. Elle a interviewé un grand nombre de personnes au sein de notre organisation, et est arrivée à mettre le doigt sur des enjeux essentiels dont nous avions plus ou moins confusément conscience, sans pouvoir mettre des mots dessus. Son intervention nous amène à nous recentrer sur des enjeux essentiels qui intègrent et dépassent la recherche de fonds. Anna est une professionnelle compétente, qui sait aller au fond des choses et en tirer les messages essentiels."

"Thank you all for the productive meeting and team building. Special thanks, of course, goes to Anna and her wonderful guidance!

I really mean it! I‘ve participated in number of similar events, but  somehow, this one really gave me a spark and sense of meaning!"
