Meet Peter Hansen

Peter is an accomplished fundraising executive with over 30 years of experience who has raised over $425 million for prominent institutions. Prior to forming Hansen Philanthropic Solutions, he was the Senior Vice President of Development of the New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) from 2007 to 2016, directing all fundraising for NJPAC, one of the nation’s largest performing arts centers, and managing its $11+ million annual fund. From 1992 to 2002, he served in several fundraising leadership capacities at NJPAC, including Vice President of Development, and was a member of the initial management team that built NJPAC. Prior to returning to NJPAC, Hansen was Director of External Affairs for The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, Missouri where he managed marketing and media relations, directed annual fundraising, and launched an endowment campaign. During his tenure, annual philanthropic support increased by over 40%, Museum attendance reversed a three-year decline, and the endowment increased by $85 million within 24 months. Previously, he was Assistant Vice President of Development at Bowdoin College, where he managed a $23 million annual advancement program. He has also served as Director of Development and Marketing for Dance Theatre of Harlem and Director of Special Projects for the US Fund for UNICEF.

Hansen Philanthropic Solutions is a strategic fundraising consulting firm providing counsel and solutions to nonprofits in the performing and visual arts and public media. The firm’s primary goal is to assist clients in strengthening and growing their fundraising/advancement programs to ensure sustainability and to support mission. Current and past clients include NJPAC, Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts, the 5th Avenue Theatre, bergenPAC, Paper Mill Playhouse, Miami City Ballet, Tennessee Performing Arts Center, The WNET Group and Mason Gross School of the Arts among others.

When COVID-19 shuttered theaters and cultural venues across the country in March 2020, all forms of earned revenue – primarily ticket sales – ceased overnight. In response, organizations scrambled to reduce operating budgets and increase contributed revenue to stay afloat.

According to Americans for the Arts, COVID-19 resulted in an estimated $15.2B financial loss for arts and cultural organizations. As recovery from such significant and abrupt loss continues, these same arts organizations are now strategizing to create a safeguard against future unexpected challenges. One of their best defenses: endowments. 

It’s time to change the conversation around annual funds. Traditionally, many independent school annual funds have focused on “bridging the gap” or closing the chasm that exists between tuition costs and a school’s operating expenses.

Annual funds are often used to cover the discrepancy between tuition and the full cost to educate a child—from technology and equipment to extracurricular activities and, of course, financial aid. In some cases, this gap can be as much as $10,000 or more per student. But focusing solely on this number in annual appeals can kill future donor conversations when acute needs arise.
