You have a nonprofit or cause you care about, but in order to sustain the organization, you need to fundraise. Development work takes practice to build your stewardship skills and hone the art of the ask. In this introduction to fundraising workshop, we will discuss how to steward your donors so they feel appreciated and compelled to keep giving, as well as give an overview of the cycle of fundraising. We will reconnect to our "why" in order to connect the development efforts to the organization's mission. Through case studies, small group activities, and a bit of role playing, you will feel more prepared to fundraise. Asking for money is not always comfortable, so you will leave with tips that prepare you to be more confident in your approach, as well as communication strategies to try out in your context.
