Blueprint Fundraising

For those of you in Metro Vancouver, I want to let you know that I’ll be offering a day of “Fundraising Basics” on January 14, 2009 at the downtown YWCA.

I’ve designed these two workshops for people who are new to fundraising or who have less than three years of experience — staff, board members and volunteers too. You can read all the details here. Early bird discounts are available until November 30 and you can register online for one or both. Participation in each session qualifies for 2.75 continuing education points towards your CFRE. Hope to see you there! Feel free to email me if you have any questions.
