San Rafael:MPJC Fund Raising Workshop by George Taylor

Saturday, November 14, 1 - 4 PM
Fund Raising Workshop
Presented by George Taylor
Community-Based Fund Raising:
Supporting Your Cause Easily and Effectively
In these difficult economic times, many groups and non-profits are turning to a community-based fund raising strategy.
This method focuses on developing your core community, and it allows you, your staff and volunteers to do what they do best: educate people about your mission and inspire them to help.
Fundraising by this method leads to sustainable, predictable results. And importantly, since 75-80% of donations come from individuals, it’s where the money is.
At this event, you will learn:
What Community-Based Fund Raising Is
How It Can Help your Organization
How Your Organization Can Raise Money through this Method
Come and learn from a skilled fundraiser and changemaker, and share the experience with others from Marin's progressive community.
This promises to be an enlightening and worthwhile afternoon.
