Obtaining sponsorships and funding for programs is more challenging than ever. This moderated panel discussion will show nonprofits how to re-frame their ask and acquire funding for their programs.

Discussion includes:
  • The need, the ask, the process
  • In-kind services - how to ask, what are resources
  • Sponsorship packages - what works, what doesn't
  • What can you deliver back to the funder
  • How corporations can become more engaged in the nonprofit world
  • How do you start the solicitation with in kind, volunteering, etc. - building a relationship
  • Putting creativity into your ask
Do you have a successful strategic partnership you'd like to share with the Nonprofit Resource Council?
We're looking for new and innovative strategic partnerships to highlight each month. Please come prepared to share your success story!
