Presented by Philanthropy MA
One of the most critical governance functions of nonprofit boards is to ensure that the organization has adequate resources to pursue its mission. In this workshop we will provide an overview of board fundraising responsibilities, clarify the roles of the board chair, board fundraising committee and individual board members in fundraising, and provide an overview of basic fundraising principles that will position board members for success.
Topic addressed will include:
- Overview of Board Governance
- Fundraising Principles: The Development Cycle
- Roles and Responsibilities
- The Board Development Committee
- Barriers to Successful Fundraising
- Building an Effective Fundraising Board
- DEI concerns in Board Fundraising
Participants will gain deeper understanding of foundational fundraising principles, clarity on the board’s role and responsibility in fundraising, and identify action steps to improve board fundraising performance.
This program is designed for but not limited to executive directors, board chairs, development committee chairs, board members, and chief development officers.
