The Year-Round Fundraiser: How Smart Leaders Keep Donors Giving All Year
Most nonprofits pour energy into one big event (think galas, 5Ks and golf outings) and a single year-end appeal. Then they wonder why revenue feels unpredictable. In this 90-minute workshop, you will learn how to shift from event-dependent fundraising to a sustainable, year-round approach grounded in meaningful donor engagement.
Participants will learn the essential touchpoints that keep supporters connected between asks, a 12-month framework focused on the donor, and practical strategies for building a true culture of giving for their organizations. Every attendee will leave with a customized fundraising calendar they create during the session that is ready to execute for 2026.
Perfect for development staff, executive directors, and board members who want more predictable revenue and stronger donor relationships.
