If nonprofit leaders hope to meet their annual fundraising goals, they must develop both the "art" and the "science" of major gift fundraising. Major gifts are, simply, the gifts that are "major" for your organization - the top 10 to 20 revenue moments that ensure your nonprofit will remain in the black year after year. This workshop will give you an introduction to the tools you need to continue landing those major gifts. There is no secret sauce, but there are workflows, patterns, and habits that can give you opportunities to drive revenue for your organization and advance your mission into the future.
