Get Transparent and Efficient
A recent survey Greater Giving conducted among nonprofits indicated that if you had to choose between raising money and furthering your mission, 100% of you would select furthering the mission. But- if you don’t fundraise, you can’t further your mission!
So what’s a nonprofit to do? If your organization can become more operationally transparent, and get more efficient when fundraising, you’ll end up with a lot more time to further your mission- and your fundraising will get easier. This presentation will provide practical, actionable strategies to help you become more transparent and efficient so you can spend more time doing what you love.
You'll learn how to:
- Leverage your website for donor recognition and gift acknowledgments
- ‘Rev up' your existing online fundraising efforts
- Implement a peer-to-peer fundraising program
- Incorporate online elements into traditional fundraising efforts
- Evaluate technology to increase efficiencies in mission critical areas
