About Essentials

Essentials Fundraising is an intense and efficient six-month fundraising training + coaching program. It's designed for leaders of smaller charities who are rich in potential, but hampered by under-performing or nonexistent fundraising programs.

Through a fast-paced six-month learning-and-doing timeline, leaders will learn to integrate essential fundraising strategies and disciplines into their charity while maturing their fundraising program, and - bottom line - fundraise successfully more often.

Learning in a cohort with other charity leaders, Essentials will help you build a real-world, customized plan for your charity and then support and coach you through initial implementation.

The Ideal Participants...

• Are directly responsible for fundraising in their organization (and likely also have other key responsibilities)

• See value in working through the essentials with a cohort of peers

• Are willing to “build the plane as they fly it,” that is, to adapt and improvise as they grow their knowledge and insight

• Are motivated to succeed in fundraising

• Can make a 6-month commitment to a significant engagement with Essentials in this effort
