Let's Plan All the Fundraising Events!

Join Patrick Kirby, founder of Do Good Better Consulting, for a hyper-caffeinated half-day training on mastering the planning and execution of fundraising events! This interactive session is designed for nonprofit leaders looking to elevate their event strategies, tweak their already established events, or start from scratch with a brand new fundraiser for their organization. We’ll cover everything from securing sponsorships and boosting ticket sales to crafting compelling marketing campaigns and engaging your board to do more than just show up. We’ll also use your current events to unleash your creativity as we explore innovative problem-solving techniques to tackle common challenges that we all face as fundraisers and event planners.

Everyone is encouraged to collect and bring everything from budgets, event materials, sponsorship kits and agendas to either tweak, enhance or throw it all away and start over to craft the best fundraising event ever! We'll l spend a LOT of time using real life examples of how to creatively craft an event from start to finish!
