#NailingIt: Prepping for Your End of Year Fundraising

  • Riverplace | Exposition Hall Meeting Room 43 Main Street Southeast Main Street Minneapolis, MN, 55414 United States (map)

Cost: $140 + processing

The final quarter of the calendar year is a crucial fundraising time for most nonprofits, and for many of us, it’s a scramble. Let’s get you geared up differently this year!

You’ll leave this day-long, interactive training with a head start on planning and tactics that will make your fundraising more successful and less stressful for you and your team.

We’ll tackle defining your audience, how to tell your best fundraising story, how to engage your board, coordinate with your team, and more. We'll spend time thinking about timelines and deadlines for your year-end campaign.

Bonus: in addition to RaiseMN’s Leah Olm, we’re bringing in Jocelyn Wong and Mario Lugay, two extraordinary development visionaries from the San Francisco Bay Area, to share their knowledge and expertise!

Who’s this for?
This session is best for folks who hold responsibility for executing their end of year fundraising efforts for their nonprofits.
