Instructor: Janet Levine Course Description Fundraising is a contact sport. The more people you contact, and the closer you get to those people, the more money you will raise. But when you are a one person development office-with or without other responsibilities-getting in front of enough of the right people may seem like an impossible task. This seminar will show you how to make the most of your time and assets to build and expand your development program. You'll learn how to: * Identify effective and sustainable fundraising techniques for your situation * Build an annual fundraising calendar to provide maximum results despite minimum resources. * Recognize your most likely large donors and develop strategies to engage them. * Create metrics and a plan that will keep you on track * Productively use your board and organization leadership to build your development program Instructor's Bio Janet Levine works with nonprofit and educational organizations, helping them to exceed their goals.

She has built programs from scratch and brought existing programs to the next level.
