Next Topic: Building a Development Committee

January 26, 2010

We've had alot of interest in learning about the role of the board in fundraising.  The obvious next step is building your organization's development committee.  I have served on multiple development committees, some highly productive, and others, well highly dysfunctional.  I have personally found that when the board and staff are fully working together and understand the value and expected contribution of each role makes for an exciting and truly successful committee.

So, how do you establish this successful development committee?  Who should serve?  What are the roles, responsibilities and desired outcomes?

I hope you can join us for a free webinar covering all of this are more on Thursday, February 11 at noon ET.  Our expert presenter is Linda Lysakowski, AFCRE and CEO of Capital Venture.  She's a true guru and also a very engaging speaker.  Board and staff alike will benefit and all are welcome to attend.  Space is limited, though, so please register now here: https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/494294552.
