Creative Fundraising and Cost-Cutting For Non-Profits

June 5, 2009

If you’re interested in being more effective with your fundraising…and doing it more efficiently…you’ll find this webinar time well spent.

Hosted by OneWorld.net in Washington, D.C., four speakers presented to a local and an online audience on May 21, 2009.

My presentation, “Understanding Your Donors and Using this Knowledge Effectively,” was the second one.

Use the following links to bring up in different browser tabs or windows the podcast (audio only) and the slide show.

With the .mov version of the slide show, you’ll need to PAUSE and PLAY the movie to keep pace with my comments on each slide. First launch and play the podcast and advance it to when I am introduced (about one-quarter of the way into the podcast), then launch the movie of the slide show.

You’ll hear references to my document with a list of key questions to have answered before developing any appeal or marketing piece. Contact me for a free copy.

I look forward to your comments and questions.

Meanwhile, the three other presenters were excellent and the audio of their presentations are worth your time, as well.

Congratulations PLGA Foundation

June 5, 2009

To the families and friends of the PLGA Foundation and to the 500+ good people who turned out for the event on May 31, congratulations on making the first annual PLGA Foundation Ride and Family Fun Festival a great success.

You’re close to reaching the goal of raising $500,000, yet you’ve accomplished so, so much by demonstrating and delivering “hope” for kids…and their families…with PLGA brain tumors.
