Online Discussion Next Week: Getting Ready for a Visit From a Foundation
July 9, 2009 | Read Time: 1 minute
Join us on Tuesday, July 14, at noon U.S. Eastern time for a live online discussion about the best ways to prepare for a visit from a foundation or other potential big supporter.
Foundation visits often make the difference between winning and missing out on a grant. Moreover, they often set the tone for longer-term relationships with foundation leaders.
Among the questions our panel of experts will answer: Who within your organization should be involved in these visits? Should you ask board members to join in? Or a representative from one of the programs your group supports? How should you plan the day? And what do foundations want to see during such visits?
The Chronicle’s online discussions are free and open to everyone. People who ask questions in advance have a better chance of getting answers.
