Introduction to Fundraising Planning

Introduction to Fundraising Planning

The first of the 2012 four-part series, Fundraising Fundamentals for Nonprofits, this workshop is geared to nonprofit staff and volunteers. Successful nonprofit organizations cultivate multiple revenue streams through sound financial planning. You’ll learn how to conduct an assets inventory, identify potential funding partners, and prepare a fundraising plan and calendar.
