Association of Fundraising Professionals, Manitoba Chapter

Overview Whether you work in a small, medium or large size charity, keeping your fundraising program robust and thriving can be a challenge. If you are looking for inspiration, motivation and creative ideas; if you are tired of dragging your senior volunteers to committee meetings; or if you are hoping to give your staff something new and exciting to work on -- then you will not want to miss this day of learning, thinking and transforming, alongside networking with colleagues and peers in the philanthropic field. Please join us on Thursday, Jan 26, 2017 for a full day with Kimberley MacKenzie!
Registration Subsidies Available Full-day session rate discounts of $100/person are available for the first five individuals to register from organizations with annual fundraising budgets of $1M or less. Open to members and non-AFP members. (Limit of one discounted registration per organization.)   The first session will focus on senior level strategic ideas. In addition to senior fundraisers, this opening session is especially well-suited for board chairs or executive directors who want to advance a culture of philanthropy in the organization. (Special pricing for attending this session only is available.)   The following two sessions will look at more tactical strategies, building on the ideas from the opening session and touching on every revenue stream, with a special focus on building a legacy program when you don’t have dedicated staff or a significant budget.   Each participant will leave with a practical workplan that they have created and can then apply in their organizations. We can’t wait to see you there!

This session will provide a forum for senior level staff to discuss the challenges of managing change, working with a board and advancing a culture of philanthropy.
