Is it time to overhaul your individual giving program?

Individuals are where the money is. Their loyalty is stronger than any other giving source, no matter the economy. The power of individual donors can be yours with thoughtful planning, focused volunteers and smart staff leadership.

Attend this workshop to learn how to:

• Create donor-centered relationship-building plans
• Design the best solicitation strategies
• Solicit gifts

Audience: To attend you must have individual donors who give regularly and board members who help with fundraising.

There will be homework assigned in December and due by January 13.
