  • Dive Deep into Events Fundraising – Golf Tournaments, Trivia Nights, and Wine Tastings, Oh My! Join President & CEO, Linda B. Haley, CFRE, and Senior Consultant, Diane Bauhof, CFRE, as we dive deep into the world of the event fundraisers we all love/hate to host! We’ll look at golf tournaments and trivia nights in depth, while also discussing give days, dining for dollars, and various other types of small fundraising efforts. You’ll learn to use our Eight Indicators of Fundraising Success to evaluate your current activities, and we’ll discuss how to grow, change, or cut your events once you’ve determined their effectiveness. Elevate your events or replace them with even better methodologies and make your annual goal much easier to achieve!
  • One Day, One Goal: President & CEO, Linda B. Haley, CFRE, and Senior Vice President, Dawn Miller, CFRE, will take you on a crowdfunding ride and share the great successes of online campaigns. Matching donors, teams, the role of social media, and more – they’ll share their community strategies and how they have never missed an online campaign goal ever. A day of active fundraising can turn into a force with a 24-hour giving campaign to raise money, increase your donor base, and build community through a virtual campaign. Their ideas and creativity will inspire you!
