How to Use Social Media
in Your Organization
March 3 Roundtable
Have
you all heard about LinkedIn, Facebook, Ammado, Twitter, etc…Did you ever
wonder who is using these on-line resources and how philanthropic they are?
Reaching
donors has taken a new turn recently away from the traditional methods of
direct mail and phone calls. Nowadays, your on-line ability to be
seen and to ask for money is imperative to a successful fund raising and
marketing operation. Come listen to Crystal Thies, Social Media
Strategist and LinkedIn Consultant, as she shares with you details about
using these social media outlets to maximize your on-line visibility, reach
new donors, and raise more money.

Relationship
Development Between Volunteer/Staff Leadership in a Philanthropic Culture
March 18 Luncheon Meeting
This
program will be presented by a panel of veteran fund raising professionals
who collectively have over 80 years of experience. They will each provide a
10-minute panel response to these questions:
• What
are best practices regarding the roles and responsibilities of the
Executive Director (President), the Director of Fund Development, and the
key Board leader?
• How
can we create a culture or milieu where philanthropy is truly infused into
the mission and values of our organization?
• How
can we identify, recruit and retain young leadership?
Following
their presentation, guests will have the opportunity for small group
discussions as well as asking questions of the presenters.
Although all are
welcome, this program is geared toward fund raising professionals with at
least 5 years of experience.
