This session will teach participants how to inspire action using Karen's five-step formula, create compelling content designed for engagement and to ultimately put purpose behind every second spent on attracting donors, raising money and building awareness. Introduction to grants, events, earned revenue, soliciting individual donations, both big and small, and where to "beat the bushes."
