A Helluva Class™ on Fear-Free Fundraising
—for nonprofit staff and board

An individual-giving program is often the last part of a nonprofit’s fundraising program to develop, and yet, it’s possibly the most important part. But, how do you go about setting up an individual-giving program if you don’t have one already? How do you set an annual goal and what are the steps you must take to get there? This class takes the mystery and fear out of raising money from individual donors. This class will help you 1) visualize the steps to follow in introducing people to your organization, 2) actually take those steps, and 3) get people to write checks!

A Helluva Class™ on Web 2.0 Tools for Nonprofit Fundraising
—for nonprofit staff

There’s a lot of buzz swirling around Web 2.0 and how it’s going to change — well, everything. Nonprofits, too, are embracing blogs, tweets, and social-networking, experimenting with how these tools can help them market themselves, build a network, and, yes, raise money for their organizations. And yet, if you don’t use Web 2.0 tools correctly, your “friends” are virtually worthless. Find out where Web 2.0 tools can enhance your donor cultivation and communication and where they cannot substitute for “old-school” fundraising techniques. See lots of real examples in this class.

Film Classes

A Helluva Class™ on How to Ask People for Money
—for indie filmmakers

New filmmakers are minted every day and every one of them is seeking funds from precisely the same sources, yet foundations that fund filmmakers are increasingly pinched in the current economy. By contrast, raising funds from individual donors allows for more control of—and easier access to—crucial funds while solidifying relationships that ideally will pay off for years to come. This six-hour class provides a lively, hands-on process to help filmmakers craft the messages and tools they need to approach individual donors. You will put this information to work during the class and prepare to take your show on the road through mock pitch sessions with a panel representing potential funders.

For upcoming dates, email holly@goldenpoppy.com
Cost: $150. Enrollment limited to 10. Register Now.
