In reflecting on his nearly 30 years in fundraising, Steve Biever is grateful for the opportunity to have served many different constituencies throughout his career. Daily, the opportunity to make a positive difference in people’s lives through philanthropy inspires him and his work.
At BWF, Steve is an associate vice president providing philanthropic counsel to clients. His background includes all aspects of philanthropy, from campaigns and planned giving to major gifts as well as from corporate and foundation relations to annual giving, donor stewardship and special event management. Steve believes his leadership experiences within the higher education, social service, health, and arts and culture sectors have positioned him well to provide counsel to nonprofits, help address their challenges, and guide them to increased success.
