Webinar with Taylor Shanklin & Christal M. Cherry
The CEO and Board Chair must ensure their boards are equipped to fundraise and advocate for their missions. For many board members, their failure to engage stems from a lack of confidence in their own ability to raise funds. Educating them on the fundraising cycle including year-end fundraising can mitigate myths, fears, and perceived obstacles for successfully raising funds.
Outcomes:
• Discuss nonprofit resiliency
• Learn the role of boards in year-end fundraising
• Understand ways to make the ask
• Explore Trends in digital fundraising
