Raise Together Webinar: Board Member Fundraising Orientation

As board members, there is nothing more vexing than fundraising. Yet, helping the organizations we govern build meaningful and supportive relationships that advance the causes we care so deeply about is a top priority.  Let’s face it, we are not fundraisers. Instead, we are in the unique position of having one foot in the life the organization while having another in the community. We are the Bridge Spanners. We create connections among and across stakeholders and causes. At our best, we are helping to build influence and value in ways that move the needle on our community’s most important needs. Here, fundraising is not about asking for money or a goal we have to reach, but a mission-driven process that we get to shape and lead utilizing our own strengths and the strengths of our fellow board members.    

This 45-minute webinar focuses on helping you, along with other new and experienced board members, re-orient yourself to your organization’s fundraising effort. During the webinar you will learn how to:

• Focus on Value Not Money
• Harness the Power of Mission, Story, and Relationship-Building
• Reframe Your Fundraising Job Description
• Develop a Healthy Board Culture Around Fundraising

Registration Fee: FREE

This webinar is led by Carlo Cuesta, Creation In Common’s Managing Partner  and Dana Gillespie, Creation In Common’s Director of Raise Together.
