Developing a Fundraising Plan 2014

Fundraising is a vital component for nonprofit organizations.  Creating a plan and being mindful of costs and benefits will yield better results.  Jan Hosea will assist each organization attending in putting together a multi-faceted development plan.

Participants will need to bring a laptop.  Each organization will receive a copy of Jan's e-book, "How to Create a Development Plan Step-by-Step," to use and keep.

Each organization will have an opportunity to work with Jan and her associates to craft their own development plan as they go through each step.  You will learn about the different types of fundraising, including special events, direct mail, planned giving, donor cultivation, and grant writing.  You will learn how to assess the resources required for each type of fundraising activity.

Learning Objectives

• Generate measurable fundraising goals for board approval
• Understand the infrastructure necessary to support the development plan
