MEASURING PROGRESS IN FUNDRAISING'S MESSY MIDDLE LANE 

Organizations of all shapes and sizes would like to have the advantages that come with consistent, unrestricted support from a dedicated group of donors. Unfortunately, most fundraising strategies lack the only thing that enables them to achieve this goal: a thriving middle lane. 

Jason Lewis wants every organization to have the advantages that accompany the middle lane. He has created frameworks that ensure nonprofits are able to understand, plan for, and evaluate their progress in creating one. Without a thriving middle lane, these organizations either become overly reliant on new donor acquisition or attempt major fundraising initiatives for which they and their donors are unprepared. 

Although it is messy, unpredictable and difficult to measure, the middle lane is where fundraising grows up. It's where talent becomes critically important, where operational support becomes sustainable, and where meaningful relationships become the driving force behind successful fundraising.

 When: Wednesday, June 19, 2019, 3:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

 Where: Famous Dave's, 4925 Kietzke Lane, Reno, NV 89509

 Speakers: Jason Lewis, Founder, Lewis Fundraising

Jason Lewis provides the sector with an often needed contrarian voice, willing to question deeply ingrained beliefs and assumptions of how effective fundraising really works. Whether writing or speaking, Jason challenges the prevailing wisdom about effective fundraising practices, hiring decisions, and donor behavior. Jason is the author of The War for Fundraising Talent, the creator of the Four Fundraising Frameworks, and the host of The Fundraising Talent Podcast.
