Event Details

Dates: September 9, 16, 23, 30, October 7 and 14

This seminar series is ideal for new fundraisers, part-time fundraisers, and those who work in small fundraising shops.

Mikhael’s mentor once said, “Fundraising is easy, but you have to get the basics right.”  He’s not sure fundraising is ever easy, but it is absolutely crucial to get the basics right. And that is what this seminar series is all about.
