IN-PERSON TRAINING: Aligning Assets – Getting the Board Engaged in the Fundraising Effort

Key to diversifying your organization’s base of support is motivating your Board of Directors to play an active role in raising money. This may seem insurmountable as many members feel uncomfortable with the subject and/or are peripherally involved. This workshop will focus on overcoming the barriers to fundraising, helping you build a systematic approach to engaging them in the effort.

During this two-hour training, you will learn techniques that will help you:

  • Talk to your board about fundraising
  • Identify the best role for each board member to play in the fundraising process
  • Effectively coordinate and support their actions in their role as well as help them develop capabilities
  • Help them convey to others why they are so passionate about the organization and why the organization is valuable to the community 

This workshop is ideal for executive directors, development staff, and board leadership.
