Turn board fundraising from a source of frustration into a culture of participation.
Too often, nonprofit boards are expected to fundraise without clear expectations, meaningful training, or opportunities to build confidence. The result? Staff feel like they're carrying fundraising alone, and board members want to help—but don't know how.
In this free, on-demand class, fundraising strategist Matthew Easterwood, CFRE, CAP®, introduces Fundraising In Action™, a practical framework that helps organizations activate every board member through their unique strengths rather than asking everyone to fundraise the same way.
Using the Five-Role Model of Effective Fundraising Boards™, you'll learn how to build a board where every member has a meaningful role in inspiring generosity—whether through stewardship, relationship-building, advocacy, sponsorships, storytelling, or solicitation.
