Stan Yogi is a Senior Consultant with Klein & Roth Consulting. He has helped to advance the missions of nonprofits for more than 30 years. He started his professional life working for grantmaking organizations, including California Humanities, where he was a program officer. He then moved to the fundraising side of the nonprofit equation, first as a grantwriting consultant. For 14 years, he was Director of Planned Giving at the ACLU of Northern California, where he was also responsible for securing foundation grants and helping to generate major annual gifts and capital contributions. He has raised funds for numerous nonprofit organizations as a board member and as a fundraising volunteer.

He has combined his love of writing, history, and activism by coauthoring two books, Wherever There's a Fight, a history of civil rights in California, and Fred Korematsu Speaks Up, a biography for young readers about a man who defied the government's World War II orders forcing Japanese Americans into prison camps.
