Meet Larry C Johnson
Our Founder
I believe in the power of relationships, in the power of philanthropy, to create a better place and transform lives.
I founded The Eight Principles to give all worthy organizations the ability to fulfill their dreams–and the dreams of their investors. We do this by showing them the path to sustainable, scaling fundraising success. Whether a small community-based nonprofit or a large established one, your organization can achieve dramatic fundraising gains which are sustainable, permanent and scale. With the right approaches, strategically applied, whole new vistas of opportunity open for you.

Three Stories of Transformation
The executive director approached The Eight Principles with a desperate plea for help. The chapter was in serious trouble. The Eight Principles went to work bringing our paradigm-shifting experiences to board and staff. In less than 120 days, their fundraising results improved by 600%. Every board member was now actively soliciting gifts.
The new CEO set the organization on a firm path. Now she wanted to build a new hospital. The hospital had an embryonic fundraising program. The CEO had no fundraising experience. The Eight Principles came to show the path forward to a lasting philanthropic culture. Staff giving jumped from 15% to 75% and a $34 million hospital became a reality.
The executive reached out to The Eight Principles with his vision. Take a solid yet unremarkable organization and dramatically improve its outreach. We guided a reorganization of the board, with giving now at 100%. Their donor based tripled and their first endowment campaign was a success. With a lasting philanthropic culture their regional influence continues to grow.
