Building Connections in the Community

Is your nonprofit facing challenges securing new donors? Would you appreciate having a strong group of potential donors that you could approach for support? For small nonprofits, fundraising can be a daunting task. The challenge is not just finding supporters for your mission, but also competing with other organizations for their attention. It's a time-consuming process that can seem overwhelming. If your fundraising plan does not include a strategy for finding donors, our course is here to help! We will provide simple tools and techniques, so you can uncover potential donors with more success.

Our Fundraising 101: How to Find Donors workshop series is designed specifically for smaller organizations. We know that unlike large organizations who may have a team of fundraisers, smaller nonprofits may only have one staff member, or be entirely volunteer run. Our goal is to empower you with the necessary knowledge, and practical strategies to successfully find donors for your organization.
