Have you prepared your nonprofit for a potential economic downturn?
If you’ve spent any time on the internet lately, you’ve probably heard the chatter.
And, as nonprofits that depend on grants and donations, this can be a scary proposition.
But don’t fret - The good news is we’re not there yet! And there's still time to prepare your nonprofit & fundraising strategy for a recession.
In this workshop, we talk to grant and fundraising experts on where we are now, where we might be headed and what steps to take to keep your organization on-track.
By the end of this workshop, you'll have learned:
- What’s the status of the economy today
- How recessions can impact fundraising
- How nonprofits can prepare & adjust fundraising strategies
- Tips on minimizing stress during a stressful time
