Our focus is on increasing your chance of success!

Successful fundraising is vital to all non-profits. Good planning and sound management are always keys to success. Fundraisers can meet the ongoing needs of your organization and are the cornerstone of many funding plans. Fund Development is the next logical step for any organization that sees itself as a long-term contributing member of a community seeking to build its organizational capacity and enter into long-term commitments with its clients and partners.
 
This Fund Development workshop, the first in a series presented by the Ministry of Culture and Community Services, Community Development Unit in partnership with the Nonprofit Sector Link, will remove some of the mystery around fund development.  We’ll provide tools designed to help organizations think about the future strategically, develop sustainable relationships and move towards ensuring long-term viability for your organization.

When:          Wednesday,  February 8, 2012 , 8:00 am - 5:00 p.m,

Where:         Bob Lamb Building, Room BL 140 (main floor)

Facilitator: Karen Doyle, CDO.(Culture and Community Services, Community Engagement and Inclusion Branch)
