Major Gifts: Making the Invitation - Workshop
Joyfully Sharing the Opportunity for Deeper Involvement in the Work
11:30 AM - 1:30 PM EST
Event Information
Does inviting someone to give to your ministry feel like an unnatural conversation? Are you timid about asking people to give financially? Does your work with major givers feel transactional? It doesn’t have to be this way.
Gather with fundraising peers at this Mission Increase workshop. Together, you will learn how to transform the way you invite people to give so that there is greater ownership in your cause.
Outcomes:
- Understand the biblical principles that inform how we invite people to give
- Articulate your mission and vision in a compelling way
- Practice inviting someone to give
If you or anyone on your team has been apprehensive about inviting financial gifts, don’t miss out!
This workshop will benefit executive directors, development staff, board members – or anyone who has personal relationships with champions. Register today!
We missed you at the last workshop where Chris shared on Major Gifts: Making the Invitation.
We want to make sure you know that it's not too late! We are offering another workshop session where Chris will present the same material where we learn how to transform the way you invite people to give so there is greater ownership in your cause.
We hope you can join us.
Space is limited and lunch will be served.
