Nurturing a Culture of Philanthropy
April 14 @ 7:30 am - 9:00 am

Speaker: . Janice Fonger, Vice President with J. Milito & Associates
Want to Raise More so you can Do More? Then it’s time to nurture a culture of philanthropy in your organization.
How your organization thinks about philanthropy can impact your fundraising outcomes.
Does your organization think of donors as ATM machines? Or as partners in advancing the mission?
Does your organization view philanthropy as the sole responsibility of the development department? Or the responsibility of the whole organization?
Join us as we uncover tools and strategies to help nurture a culture of philanthropy in your organization.
