This session provides an introduction to the diverse strategies nonprofits can use to generate revenue for their organizations with an emphasis on planning, sustainability and the role of Executive Staff and Board Members in fundraising efforts. We will be covering four key topics that typically arise when discussions of "fundraising" occur. 

These are

  • the importance of integrating fund development planning at the board and staff level.
  • how to build and effective board/staff partnership including the role of each in creating and implementing a plan.
  • overcoming the fear of the "ask" with consistent, impactful messaging and considering new and innovative entrepreneurial approaches.
