SEATTLE: Nonprofit Storytelling Conference, November 5-7
I’m thrilled to be part of this brand new conference concept. This isn’t your regular shuffling from seminar to seminar conference. Instead, a dozen of the country’s top fundraising experts will be showing you sequentially how to tell your nonprofit’s story. We’re intending for every organization to leave with a detailed 12-month plan for fundraising in 2015. See why Tom Ahern is calling the Nonprofit Storytelling Conference the “Making Money Money Conference!” and check out the video “attending” option: http://thenonprofitstorytellingconference.com/video-option/
