My Story

Dean grew up on the South Plains, graduated from Texas Tech, moved to Houston where she had a successful career in banking and Internet development.  Moving back to Lubbock to be with family propelled her into a new career in Fundraising at Texas Tech, LHUCA and now for Non-Profit Organizations of the South Plains.

Dean V. Loehr & Associates is a Lubbock based consulting firm providing consulting services and products to Non-Profits Organizations, helping clients with:

  • Proposal and Grant Writing
  • Board Training
  • Fundraising Strategies
  • Using the Gala Assist app to enhance your
    gala. 

Results

During my time at Texas Tech from 2005 to 2012, I successfully raised over $8.4 million for the College of Human Sciences. Since then, I’ve continued to raise funds, directly securing over $575,000 for various clients. Additionally, I’ve provided guidance to gala organizers, resulting in over $2.5 million raised at their events. Furthermore, I’ve consulted with clients on their multi-million-dollar Capital Campaigns.
