Lunch & Learn: Fundraising 101
Join chamber staff and fellow members for lunch and a learning session focused on Fundraising 101 presented by Leslie Bluestone, CFRE, CFRM with Bluestone Fundraising Advisors!
Does fundraising feel intimidating? Are you uncertain about the federal and state funding you relied on in the past? Join me for an introduction -- or refresh -- on fundraising for your nonprofit. We’ll break down the basics, clear up common myths, and share simple, practical strategies you can use right away so fundraising feels doable and even fun. You will leave with confidence and next steps you can put into action as soon as you get back to the office.
Food and refreshments will be provided by Bause Catering for this event!
