Launch & Learn

Join our LBH experts for lunch, fundraising knowledge, and networking!

• 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!
• Growing Through Grants: Vice President of Grants for Growth, Beth Jantz, and Grants Consultant, Dr. Eliza Sanders, will share strategies to build a successful grant program. We will explore grant strategy, including: Realistic goal setting, Building your grants team, Prospect research, Cultivation and stewardship, and Storytelling. You’ll come away with a clear blueprint to take your grant program to the next level!
• Finance and Fundraising Working Together: We know the relationship between the finance and fundraising departments isn’t always easy, but there are strategies to make it smooth and rock solid. Let’s come together to share real ideas to build trust, lasting relationships, and crush our fundraising goals!
