Online fund raising is more than simply having a website or asking for gifts by email. Come explore the interesting and fast-moving world of philanthropy in cyberspace. We’ll look at the remarkable growth of online support in the nonprofit sector and explore some of the approaches used by the most successful organizations. Don’t worry if you’re html-illiterate or just now getting comfortable with the concept of e-anything! This session will present more on the philosophy and approach of online communications for fund raising (who, what, when, why) and less on the technical side (how). Learn more about integrating these concepts into your fund raising program.
