Communications 101: Best Practices for Nonprofit Communications & Marketing

 Registration is closed for this event

Description

Nonprofits with effective communication understand the importance of building internal and external trust and support, vital for achieving the organization’s mission and goals. Internal communications engage employees, Board members and volunteers in activities throughout the organization and set the stage for how the organization will engage with the public. External communications are important for raising awareness, building, and strengthening reputation, and attracting volunteers and donors to the organization. Communications 101: Best Practices for Nonprofit Communications & Marketing will include discussions and group work that will equip nonprofit organizations with the tools to utilize existing resources to implement a dynamic communications strategy. We will discuss strategic communications planning, branding and how to implement a successful marketing strategy.

*This workshop will be hosted virtually on Zoom.
