Make Everyone at Your Nonprofit a Fundraiser

Join us to learn how to inspire your board, volunteers, and all staff members to share responsibility for fundraising. YouÕll get a look inside a nonprofit that has successfully mobilized its board, staff, and volunteers to build donor relationships with donors and seek donations.

Learn from two nonprofit experts who will share proven tips and tactics for fostering collaboration among fundraisers, program staff, and board members Ð and see how these new approaches are garnering more dollars.

YouÕll learn how Kris Hermanns, chief executive of the Pride Foundation, sparked a reorganization at her nonprofit five years ago that led to a significant growth in revenue. The changes led to a 38 percent increase in the number of new donors, and donor retention improved by 9 percent.

SheÕll share advice on how to restructure staff, allocate resources, and set everyone up for fundraising success Ð from the board chair to program staff.

Jeanne Bell of CompassPoint will join Ms. Hermanns in walking through the steps to take Ð from assessing your organizationÕs strengths and weaknesses, to shifting mindsets and redefining board and staff roles, to providing training and tools to ensure a consistent approach.
