  • What is contained in this course and why I created this course for non-profits3:48

    Fundraising is what you make it. It can be really difficult or it can be really fun. If you can see the advantages, then your experience will be exciting.

  • Fundraising Points - think about these before you do your fundraising planning3:45

    Benefits - to whom? For what? What can benefits do for your fundraising efforts - a whole lot. Yet, benefits are often not considered.

    What should fundraising be about besides raising much needed money?\

    What is the mistake that most people make about fundraising ideas?


  • Get Organized - if your foundation is weak, fundraising will be challenging3:12

    The foundations of your organization must be sound before even thinking about fundraising. People wonder why their efforts don't pay off. Often the underlying support structure simply doesn't have the strength to support fundraising. Fundraising is a team affair and the team must be well structured before it can hope to win.

Requirements

  • Anyone taking this course should have an idea of what fundraising is, who is in charge of fundraising for non-profits and have attended fundraisers

Description

This course is about stimulating your creativity and imagination in service of the non-profit with which you are associated.

Board members are charged with fundraising. Often, they get stuck. The old ways of fundraising aren't working any longer. They don't know what else to do.

First things first are contained in the first part. Your organization's foundation must be well-structured and sound before thinking fundraising.

The second part gives you loads of ideas - some old - some new. Whatever idea you have make sure it fits your group. You can combine some of these ideas to make your fundraiser even more spectacular.

The third part contains some ideas which may stretch your ideas about fundraising or you may say - "It's so obvious. Why didn't we think of it?"

There are a million and one fundraising ideas out there - this course is simply a stimulus for your group to put your brainstorming caps on and decide upon something. You can watch it over and over and over again - use it annually - and share your successes. I can add them to the course and help other groups.

Who this course is for:

  • Members of non-profit boards of directors charged with fundraising
  • Non-profit staff who participate in fundraising brainstorming sessions
