    Want to empower your non-development colleagues, board members, and volunteers to be more powerful advocates for your organization - and for the role development plays in driving mission impact? Join us for this interactive training and discussion with the team from Neighbors Link

    Our presenters will share how to articulate:

    • why philanthropy matters
    • how smart development builds durable systems that sustain organizations beyond moments of crisis
    • the best ways for stakeholders to communicate with intention and clarity across different audiences

    Participants will leave with tools and language you can adapt for conversations, orientations, or trainings within your own organizations.

    We encourage board members, volunteers, and all nonprofit staff to attend this event to hear firsthand how you can strengthen impact and support long-term success and sustainability by being informed, confident partners in philanthropy.

    Speakers 
    Adrienne Vogel - Chief Development Officer
    Luisa Granda-Rodríguez - Sr. Director of Operations & External Relations

    Registration deadline: April 2, 2025

Our members say:

“I’m engaging my donors as I like to be engaged: thoughtfully, respectfully, a dash of humor, and building the relationship – and the gifts are coming!”

“I am watching our board and staff move from skepticism about being able to raise money to being engaged and empowered.”

“I was able to get approval on increasing the frequency of an event from every two years to annually, and helped increase online giving by 12% through crowdfunding for a climate change research organization.”

“A fundraising audit prompted the creation of our first annual report…which led to three times the $$$ on our annual appeal. (And we won a design award for the report as well!)”
