Meet Jose Gaign
Registered Consultant
Chartered Institute of Fundraising
"My arrival into fundraising was accidental.
My determination to succeed was intentional."
Before Gaign Strategic existed, Jose was on the doorstep — literally. As a door-to-door fundraiser, he didn't just meet targets. He broke records. He ranked #1 in the UK out of over 1,000 fundraisers for the National Deaf Children's Society for three consecutive weeks. He set a national record for Marie Curie, selling 33 lottery tickets in a single week — surpassing the previous national best of 29.
Those numbers aren't just impressive statistics. They represent a fundamental truth about how Jose approaches fundraising: it is a human conversation, not a transaction. Every door was a relationship. Every conversation was a chance to connect a person's values to a cause that deserved their support.
That same philosophy underpins everything Gaign Strategic does today. Jose founded the company because he saw too many health charities stuck — not for lack of mission, but for lack of the right strategy and someone willing to implement it alongside them. He built Gaign Strategic to be the partner he wished those charities had.
National Deaf Children's Society
Ranked first in the UK out of 1,000+ door-to-door fundraisers — three consecutive weeks
Marie Curie — National Record
Lottery tickets sold door-to-door in a single week, surpassing the previous national record of 29
Permission-based, donor-first fundraising in everything we do
Strategy that gets implemented, not filed away in a report
Real-world results from the doorstep to the boardroom
"Working with Jose changed how we think about fundraising entirely. He didn't just give us a strategy — he sat with us, challenged our assumptions, and helped us find revenue streams we hadn't considered. Within six months we had a clearer plan and more confidence than we'd had in years."
