Mobilize Your Board to Raise More Money

Howonquet Hall

This Wild Rivers Community Foundation event is offered in partnership with NorCAN. An exciting opportunity to work with nationally renowned nonprofit strategist Andy Robinson! If your board isn’t raising the money it could - indeed, if your board isn’t raising money at all - you’re not alone. In this workshop, we’ll discuss the reasons why, and outline strategies to turn things around. You’ll leave with several practical, specific ideas for increasing board involvement and effectiveness. For: Staff, Board Members, and Key Fundraising Volunteers Topics Include: Redefining fundraising: it’s not just asking for money Why people give: the psychology of fundraising Building a board fundraising menu The basics of face to face fundraising Helping board members take leadership and hold each other accountable For 34 years Andy has worked with a variety of nonprofits in 47 states as a fundraiser, facilitator, trainer, and community organizer. His books include Grassroots Grants and Selling Social Change, available at Jossey-Bass. Andy’s latest books, How to Raise $500 to $5000 from Almost Anyone, Great Boards for Small Groups, and The Board Member’s Easier Than You Think Guide to Nonprofit Finances (with Nancy Wasserman), were published by Emerson & Church. A brand new title co-authored with Andrea Kihlstedt, Train Your Board (and Everyone Else) to Raise Money, will be published in March 2014. A light breakfast and lunch will be provided.
