Nonprofit Pro is one of the leading non-profit resources. One of the reasons why my team and I like them very much is because they provide real, relevant and engaging information to the organization that is critical to the current fundraising environment. In other words, they did not provide the same, old and exhausted solutions for non-profit challenges.
From November 12th to 14th in Philadelphia, they will host a non-profit professional peer conference [aka NonProfit PRO P2P 201: Redefining peer meetings]. You or your team members still have time to sign up for this important event.
Why are you attending the P2P 201 conference?
-
Peer-to-peer [P2P] fundraising is an important part of many fundraising initiatives. For example, charities dealing with health and wellness or education have found that getting their champions to ask for fundraising is a successful formula. The conference will provide participants with best practices on P2P. -
You will have the opportunity to connect and mix with other people like you who are starting a peer-to-peer fundraising plan or have a successful track record. You will also have the opportunity to hear thought leaders on the subject, participate in group roundtables, and more. -
A special feature of this special session is that non-profit professionals want to provide their participants with lively, interactive and intimate activities so that people can engage in meaningful discussions. For attendees, these are key features that are friendly to the participants. -
The conference will have excellent thought leadership. For example, some featured speakers include Lisa Bowman, CMO, United Way Worldwide; Courtney Bugler, Director of the Therapy Series, Susan G. Komen; DJ Hampton II, Senior Vice President and Chief Development Officer, Market Leader, March of Dimes; and, Krystn Kuckelman, Vice President, Event Development, National Kidney Foundation.
The conference fee is $695, allowing you to conduct a two-day case study, roundtable, Q&A and discussion, as well as breakfast, lunch and dinner. You can find out more about the agenda by checking out the Nonprofit Pro P2P 201 conference.
How can I attend this meeting?
Please allow me to end this article on the P2P 201 conference by saying the fee. I recognize that many organizations have limited budgets. However, I think that if you follow my blog, you are a person who believes in growth and sustainability, because this is what I often write on blogs.
I have been in your shoes. When I founded a non-profit organization that was founded many years ago, I was working with my team at the kitchen table. However, we also know that expanding the size of the organization is critical to our vision of achieving broad impact. This means that you must think creatively about how to get funding for important things, such as attending a professional development conference, which will help you gain the skills you need to grow your organization by getting more fundraising.
Ask the main donor to personally fund this aspect of your work and demonstrate the impact of the gift by showing the increased fundraising amount raised through peer-to-peer fundraising. You can also simply budget funds from general working capital, or ask the Foundation to provide you with professional development funding. Regardless of what you decide to do, give priority.
With our fall, if you are looking for a conference to attend this year, this will be one of them.
