Description: What would happen if no one in an organization focused their efforts on resource development? Would great nonprofits be forced to reduce or cancel programs, postpone critical events/campaigns, or even worse-close their doors?

This webinar focuses on development planning basics, so individuals new to the world of fundraising and nonprofits are equipped to make successful transitions. A healthy development staff and plan help put safety nets in place to ensure organizations can survive major transitions and work towards long-term goals. Funding For Good's team will dissect the roles and responsibilities of development staff, identify and highlight best practices in fundraising, and share creative solutions to a successful development position from their own experiences.
