Webinar Description:
This interactive webinar focuses on fund development strategies and tactics during crucial times in an organizations life – major transitions. From a program’s major grant ending to a founding director leaving the organization, transition is a very difficult time for organizations internally among staff, but also externally with funders. This webinar will dive deep into navigating fund development strategies during organizational transition, as well as steps your organization can take to prepare. We will also feature a real organization that went through major transition, including losing 75% of their operating budget, yet have been able to expand their coverage, open satellite offices in all six of their rural counties, maintain all of their staff and stay true to their mission.
