Upcoming Capacity Building Workshops
Grant Writing 201
THURSDAY February 9, 2017
Derby 9:00 pm - 11:30 pm
Derby Public Library
$10
For professionals who want an in-depth look at the planning and evaluation terminology used in grant writing and reporting
This session offers an in-depth examination of the 3 different application types that make up the responsive grant process; it is a complement to the Grantseeker Information Webinar, which provides an overview of all grant process and requirements.
Designed for Board-staff teams, this practical session addresses the complementary roles Board members play in their organization's governance and resource development. The session begins with a close look at Board recruitment, structure, operations, and culture, knowing that weak Boards don't raise funds effectively. The second part of the session focuses on how to involve Board members in effective fundraising. Topics covered:
trends impacting governance & fundraising in the nonprofit sector
legal obligations of nonprofit Boards and best practices surrounding Board roles and responsibilities and Board recruitment
how the lack of effective Board structure can kill fundraising
periodic fundraising exercises you can do with your Board
how every single willing Board member can be a great fundraiser ...and more
These workshops are open to nonprofits serving The Community Foundation for Greater New Haven's service area, including the towns served by its partner in philanthropy, the
Valley Community Foundation.
