Session Description:<\/h3>\nAt the heart of your vision, you need to have a dream. So much of our marketing and outreach is based on our needs, rather than our impact. <\/span><\/h3>\nAs a sector, we don’t fundraise because we have needs, we fundraise because we meet needs. Our sector is all about solutions — so let’s stop focusing on problems and talk about results. <\/span><\/h3>\n\n- Is “getting back to zero” (balancing your budget) considered an achievement?<\/span><\/li>\n
- When was the last time you spent time in your organisation thinking and dreaming about what would be possible if you had a really big investor on your team?<\/span><\/li>\n
- Do your materials project a vision of what your community can become if you have the resources to do what you dream of doing?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Donors invest in dreams and in impact. The “same old, same old” character of much of our fundraising messaging is not reaching today’s donors — no matter their age. They are impatient for results. They want to feel like a partner for positive change — and we can help them become engaged that way if we take a long look at our materials and messages and ask ourselves if they are tempting to someone who is wanting to make a huge investment in their community. <\/span><\/h3>\nKay Sprinkel Grace has planned a provocative, inspiring, intelligent and useful webinar — and will leave each participant with a new sense of the possibilities that await if we have the courage to think big. Kay will share stories of organizations large and small who dared to dream — with fantastic results.<\/span><\/h3>\nIntended Audience:<\/h3>\n
CEOs, executive directors, board members, communications staff, fund development staff, volunteers, anyone who wants to be part of BIG Ideas and BIG Dreams<\/p>\n
