Getting Great Grants
Judith Snyder, MPS, LSW
Do you work hard and send that really good grant repeatedly to several foundations and wonder why you get refusals? Have you heard about the Foundation Center and GuideStar and researching 990s, but really don’t know where to start? If so, this webinar is for you. In this 90 minute session, we will talk about your agency’s needs that are fundable with grants; we will talk about researching potential grant funders; and finally, we will review an outline to write a great grant that gets funded.

Building a Fundraising Board

Fundraising is most successful when it is a community effort. Your organization’s board of directors needs to be a full partner with you as you raise funds for your ARRA projects and other programs.

Mission Driven Earned Income
Catherine Marshall
Mission-driven earned income can be a part of every nonprofit's revenue generation strategy. Earned income activities offer opportunities to expand the nonprofit's work in the community, secure unrestricted funds and reduce dependency on fickle funding sources. This workshop will help nonprofit leaders and consultants examine typical earned income opportunities, identify resources that will help test the feasibility of a concept and gain a better understanding of how an earned income strategy can change and improve the nonprofit organization.
