Build a Better Event and Raise More Money

Learn cutting-edge approaches to organizing your next fund-raising event in The Chronicle of Philanthropy’s one-hour Webinar. We’ll show you how to maximize donations and build community support, whether you’re developing a new walkathon, gala, auction, or other event―or seeking ideas to transform a tired affair into a crowd-pleasing experience that raises a lot more money. Join us to learn:

•  Proven techniques to inspire people who participate in walkathons, bikathons, and other events to raise more money from friends, relatives, co-workers, and others.

•  How to avoid common pitfalls that keep events from producing strong returns.

•  When an events planner is worth the money, and when you don’t need to hire one.

•  Tactics for using social networks to mobilize supporters and raise more money.
