Fundraising Webinar originally aired on September 10, 2026

Teams made up of a few fundraisers — or even just one — know what it’s like to do more with less. Many of these shops are small but mighty. The most successful tend to focus on the fundamentals and prioritize tactics that have the greatest impact.  

How can small fundraising teams set their organizations up for long-term growth? 

Join this 75-minute webinar to learn from a CEO and senior executive at a nonprofit that navigated a major federal funding loss last year as well as a fundraising leader at a national organization that coaches its chapters on how to boost fundraising results.   

Together they’ll explain how to assess which activities are working well, identify those that bring the highest return, and build a team and culture that support long-term success. 

They’ll share ways to forge strong donor ties despite limited resources, including involving board members and volunteers in outreach, and they’ll share inexpensive ways to connect supporters to your mission. Plus, you’ll get simple but creative ideas for showing donors appreciation and demonstrating your impact, so they’ll keep giving. 

Don’t miss your chance to learn how to: 

• Assess your fundraising activities and decide what to stop doing 

• Use a fundraising pyramid to prioritize tactics that drive growth
• Thank donors in consistent and personal ways without spending too much
