How Advocacy Can Help Your Nonprofit Fundraise

This free workshop will discuss how such advocacy can be part of an overall fundraising strategy. Nonprofits also may be able to attract new foundation or individual donors who view the organization’s mission through a policy lens. And advocacy can help establish a nonprofit as a thought leader - inspiring donors and boosting credibility with various public officials. Including current events and policy issues in a nonprofit’s communications to its constituents and funders can help, too - some nonprofits are having success with “rage fundraising,” strategies focused on connecting with donors’ outrage about the current political situation. All these approaches will be discussed in a lively format led by Larry Kaplan, principal of Larry Kaplan Consulting, who provides both fundraising and advocacy services for nonprofits and associations.
