Event Description

Title
Your ‘Best Fit’ Funding Model & Trends in Fundraising

Presenters
Adrienne Graham, Owner, Leapfrog Training & Facilitation, Central Oregon Representative, Nonprofit Association of Oregon 
Jen Rusk, Consultant, Rusk Coaching & Consulting
Tim Rusk, Executive Director, MountainStar Family Relief Nursery

In this interactive workshop we’ll explore six steps you can use to develop a funding model that is the ‘best fit’ for your organization (not a one-size-fits-all proposition!). In addition to hearing your questions and experiences, a local Executive Director will share his insights and learnings from engaging these steps. We’ll close by looking at some emerging trends in fundraising and share ideas on how you can use this information in your organization.

Area of Nonprofit Excellence - Resource Development

Every learning opportunity NAO offers is aligned with one of nine areas of our Principles and Practices for Nonprofit Excellence that NAO believes are critical to every nonprofit’s effectiveness and success. Diversity, equity and inclusion are essential for a thriving, effective and successful nonprofit; therefore, DE&I is embedded across all nine areas.

This event focuses on Resource Development. For additional resources in this category, visit: Resource Development.
