Webinar Opportunity: Building a Major Donor Program

February 16, 2018

As part of our Raising the States resource development training program, Equality Federation is excited to team up with Network for Good to provide training opportunities open to all members!

Our first two webinars this year will focus on major donors. Whether your top donor gives $100 or $100,000, you need to be thinking about how to craft an appropriate experience to show gratitude for their investment in your mission.

Register today to attend a two-part series to join Ayda Sanver, CFRE, who will walk you through the process of identifying a major donor and preparing for the first ask.
