    Let's get your board members fired up about fundraising and turn their passion into action! Join us to explore how you can develop a more enthusiastic, engaged board excited about possibilities for your organization and eager to play a part in making them happen.

    Board members, executive directors, and development staff will learn:

    • Exercises to help board members develop their own personal message
    • Best practices and easy roles for board members to engage in fundraising
    • The delicate art of opening the door to a donor without being pushy
    • An introduction to "friendraising" for board members who are nervous about fundraising

    Speaker: Gail Perry, Gail Perry Group

    Gail's Fired-Up Fundraising approach, developed over the past 30 years as a nonprofit philanthropy expert, has helped organizations raise hundreds of millions in gifts. Gail was recently named one of LinkedIn’s Top Voices in Philanthropy. And, gailperry.com is consistently listed among the top fundraising resource websites in the world.

Our members say:

“I’m engaging my donors as I like to be engaged: thoughtfully, respectfully, a dash of humor, and building the relationship – and the gifts are coming!”

“I am watching our board and staff move from skepticism about being able to raise money to being engaged and empowered.”

“I was able to get approval on increasing the frequency of an event from every two years to annually, and helped increase online giving by 12% through crowdfunding for a climate change research organization.”

“A fundraising audit prompted the creation of our first annual report…which led to three times the $$$ on our annual appeal. (And we won a design award for the report as well!)”
