Description

AFP Northeast Ohio Presents the Fundraising Effectiveness Project AFP Donor Retention Course: A Self-Assessment Workshop

The Fundraising Effectiveness Project annual survey indicates that nonprofits are losing nearly as many donors and gifts as they gain each year.

The AFP Northeast Ohio Chapter is offering its members a unique hands-on opportunity to create a game plan for your development department. The workshop is based on data collected via the Fundraising Effectiveness Project (FEP), an annual survey of the gains and losses of donors and gifts. Building a sustainable development program means you need to acquire donors and KEEP them. This workshop will provide you with a database management simulation and comparative benchmark statistics based on organizational budgets, location, staff size, sector, and geographic region.

By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a framework to develop and use metrics to analyze the overall performance of your development office. To take full advantage of this workshop, there is advance “homework.” Those who register by June 1 will receive a data input form to complete in advance. Using this form during the workshop, you will create and take up to eight personalized analyses specific to your organization that you can review with your CEO and development team.

Space is limited to 40 participants, so don’t delay – sign up today! Note: this opportunity is designed for those who will be active participants in the pre-workshop Assignment and the hands-on exercises.

WHO: Designed for fundraising professionals at the intermediate to advanced level who have responsibility for donor cultivation. Facilitated by Lori Hunter Overmyer, MBA, CFRE. 8.0 points of CFRE Credit for full participation. Teams of two from each agency should include a development professional and a data collection professional.
