2-Day Workshop: From Uncertainty to Sustainability: Develop a Fundraising Plan That Works

A Hands-On, Practical Workshop to Build Your Nonprofit’s Fundraising Strategy

Nonprofit fundraising shouldn’t feel like guesswork. Yet, too often, organizations find themselves scrambling for funding, reacting to financial challenges instead of building a clear, proactive strategy.

If your team is looking for a structured, actionable approach to fundraising, this workshop is for you.

Designed for nonprofits with annual revenue under $1M, this two-day virtual experience will give you the tools, frameworks, and expert guidance to develop a fundraising plan tailored to your organization. You’ll work alongside experienced fundraising professionals to build a plan that supports long-term sustainability.

What You’ll Walk Away With

By the end of this workshop, you and your team will have:

• A fundraising framework designed to align with your nonprofit’s mission and goals
• Defined fundraising strategies that move you from reactive to proactive planning
• A working draft of a fund development plan, complete with revenue streams, donor engagement strategies, and key action steps
• Templates and an implementation guide to put your plan into action
• A roadmap with clear next steps and deadlines

Exclusive Bonus: Personalized Support from Fundraising Professionals

Every participant will receive a complimentary 30-minute 1:1 follow-up consultation with an expert fundraising consultant. Use this session to:

• Get personalized feedback on your plan
• Troubleshoot fundraising challenges specific to your organization
• Identify next steps to implement your plan with confidence

Consultations must be scheduled within 30 days of the workshop.

Who Should Attend?

Fundraising isn’t a one-person job. A strong development plan requires alignment across your team. We highly recommend that multiple team members attend together, including:

• Executive Directors 
• Development Staff & Fundraising Leads 
• Board Members 
• Anyone leading fundraising or revenue development efforts within the organization

When the fund development team works together, fundraising becomes more effective, sustainable, and mission-driven.
