In this one-day interactive training, we’ll help you become a more proactive fundraiser. Proactive fundraisers don’t just wait for calls to open – they create funding opportunities and significantly increase their chances of success. More importantly, they don’t see donors only as funders, but as partners in achieving shared goals.

Don’t expect a lecture in which you relax. We expect you to work during this session!

By the end of the day, you will be able to assess when a proactive fundraising approach works best, how to build strong relationships with foundations and institutional donors, and how to develop partnerships that go beyond a single grant or funding cycle.
