This virtual training is offered by CompassPoint

Who is this training for?

This training is for leaders of organizations who want to explore moving from fundraiser to resource mobilizer. Some foundational knowledge in fundraising may be helpful before joining, but we invite anyone playing a role in resourcing social change efforts to learn with us! This training might not be a good fit for fundraisers solely focused on tips and tactics for raising the largest dollar amount possible. Instead, we’ll spend our time exploring how we can liberate the work we do to generate resources in ways that are more sustainable and build community power.

Please note: This is a three-part series. Check dates carefully before you commit to making sure you can attend all three parts!

In this online workshop, you will:

  1. Re-imagine the role of “fundraiser”— from being reactive to and transactional with donors to being expansive, creative, and rooted in community.

  2. Understand key fundraising terms and principles through the lens of resource mobilization.

  3. Practice donor cultivation in ways that tap into community values, connect supporters to larger movements, and build community power.

  4. Reflect on your role as fundraiser, identify practices you want to leave behind and what new approaches you’ll grow as a resource mobilizer.
