Development Q&A Webinar: Techniques for Approaching Potential Contributors
Tuesday, February 19, 2019, 11:00am – 12:00pm
This webinar will feel like you are sitting in the same room with the presenters. Using the Zoom platform, participants will have an opportunity to pose questions and get answers in real time from development professionals Larry Raff and Katelyn Quynn.
It can be hard to ask people to give money to your organization but having a toolkit of methods for approaching individuals, foundation, and corporations will help prepare you to have these conversations.
Katelyn and Larry will offer opening remarks to set the stage with some environmental insights and challenges and opportunities faced by small and medium size development shops. Then the floor will be open for questions and discussion.
It is our hope that you will prepare and have questions that address your particular situation and needs, and the responses from Katelyn and Larry will address your question and provide broader learning value to the audience.
