Are your event night guests cross-eyed by the time you’re asking them to support your cause? Help them focus in on what really matters-funding your work! During this session we will discuss: top tips for a successful fund-a- need, how to market it in advance, creating an emotional appeal, and utilizing matching funds. We will also cover how technology can have a positive influence on the giving experience of your guests. Be sure to join us as we provide the clarity your event has been missing!
