At OCIR Method Consulting, we help nonprofits turn vision into sustainability. Founded by Tracy Wasserman, a fundraising leader with 20+ years of experience, OCIR is built on the values of Opportunity, Collaboration, Innovation, and Results.

After relocating to Vermont in 2024, Tracy established OCIR to partner with mission-driven organizations across the state and beyond. With deep experience raising millions for nonprofits nationwide, she brings fresh energy and local commitment to Vermont’s nonprofit landscape, helping small and mid-sized organizations diversify revenue, strengthen donor engagement and build strategies rooted in community.

We specialize in:

Fundraising strategy & diversification – building sustainable revenue streams that reduce reliance on a single funding source.

Storytelling & communications – shaping narratives that inspire generosity and strengthen community trust.

Strategic planning & board development – aligning organizational goals with actionable fundraising and engagement strategies.

Equity-driven approaches – ensuring processes reflect and honor the communities nonprofits serve.

What sets OCIR apart is our balance of strategy and storytelling. We don’t just design plans, we embed ourselves in your mission, elevate your story, and craft practical strategies that resonate with funders, stakeholders, and communities alike.

Our goal is simple: to empower nonprofits with the tools, strategies and confidence to not just survive, but to thrive.
