Online Fundraising Strategies for Tough Times

Reminder: Thursday evening, January 8, I will moderate a panel discussion at the NYC Foundation Center, Online Fundraising Strategies for Tough Times.  Guest speakers will include Allan Pressel of Charity Finders and Cristine Cronin of NY Charities.  Due to a large number of registrations, the Foundation Center has closed registration, so unfortunately you won’t be able to attend unless you’ve already signed up.  However, I will offer a follow-up webinar on Wednesday evening, January 21 on ephilanthropy strategies.  Watch for details in my next post.

Upcoming Program at Foundation Center in NYC

On Thursday, January 8, 2009, from 5:30 – 7:30 PM EST, I will be moderating a program at the NYC Foundation Center, Online Fundraising Strategies for Tough Times.  My speakers will include Cristine Cronin, President of NY Charities and Allan Pressel, CEO/Founder of Charity Finders.  We will discuss ways to continue to fundraise effectively during tough economic times using online techniques.  Our target audience will be mostly small to mid sized nonprofits that already have a web site, but want to raise more money onlne.

Attendance is free, but early sign up is encouraged.  Thanks to Charlotte Dion, Director of Foundation Center’s NY Library / Learning Center,  for helping to arrange this program.

Meantime, here’s an interesting portal prepared by Nonprofit Consulting which links to a presentation and other resources on the topic we’ll be discussing next month.   Also see some Online Fundraising Myths.

Hope to see you at the Foundation Center.
