Stabilize Your Organization’s Fundraising in These Tough Economic Times
Are you and your organization willing to invest 5 fast-paced days to make definite plans to secure your organization’s financial future?

“Sustainable Pathways: Developing Financially Healthy Organizations” is a 5-day workshop that walks you -- and up to two of your colleagues -- through an analysis of your organization’s current fundraising activities and gives you step-by-step guidance and direction as you create a balanced funding plan for the next 18-24 months.
You’ll learn about:
- Trends in Funding in Today’s Economic Climate
- How to Analyze Your Current Fundraising Activities
- Determining Fundraising Objectives & Developing a Strategy
- The 8 Methods of Fundraising
- Documenting a Plan for the Upcoming 18-24 Months
- Creating a Timeline for Activities
- Assigning Activities to People
- Getting Your Plan Underway
