Nonprofit Cafe // Year-end is coming. Is your fundraising strategy ready? - In-Person Session

Join Nonprofit Cafe on Friday, November 10th at 9:00 am at the Bozeman Public Safety Center.

Year-end is coming. Is your fundraising strategy ready?

Description:

We have 7 weeks to go before year-end. Are you ready? Do you know what you are focusing on? There are always new fundraising gimmicks out there, and its easy to get overwhelmed on where we should focus our fundraising time and energy. In this session, we'll uncover how to best apply our limited time through the end of the year and beyond, to focus on what matters the most to effectively raise money for our causes: the individual. Effective fundraising revolves around the right person, asking the right person for the right amount at the right time. We’ll dissect who, how, and why we should be laser focused on individual cultivation, stewardship, and solicitation to raise more money for our organization.

Who should join:

This Nonprofit Cafe session will be most impactful for development staff, senior leadership, and board members.
