Raising money from donors is one of the most quick and cost-effective ways to gain the critical resources your grassroots group needs. Meeting with donors not only helps raise funds, but spreads the word about the work you're doing, identifies more volunteers and builds political power. But where to start?
During this webinar, participants will learn step-by-step where to look for major donors, how to get a meeting, and how to make a compelling pitch to build money for your movement. This webinar will be lead by Megan Stoke of Toxics Action Center.
Speaker:
