Is your organization struggling to raise money? Do you feel alone in fundraising? In this fast-paced, interactive workshop, you’ll learn how to raise more money in less time at lower cost. You’ll be able to engage volunteers in fundraising, learn why you don’t need a gala or a golf tournament, and your best source of new dollars.

You’ll have the immediate tools to:

  • --create fundraising events that raise funds
  • --turn a coffee meeting into a gift
  • --create systems that leads to new volunteers and donors, and more.

 

This training will give solutions to the following common situations:

  • --How to fundraise if your board isn’t rich
  • --Half of the “donors” in your database don’t give money
  • --You don’t have time to send thank-you letters

 

Join us to learn how to get results like these:

  • --A new-on-the-job staff member raises $550,000 in new gifts from 80 donors in ten months
  • --Two volunteers put together a party in that raises $7,500 and is endlessly repeatable
  • --An executive director raises $250,000 in 11 weeks

 

These methods work whether you’re a start-up or have been in place for years.
