We’ve all had the board member who “will do anything but fundraise.” This presentation breaks down board reluctance toward fundraising by introducing steps we as fundraising professionals can take to get and keep board members in the development zone. Sample documents and templates for establishing board expectations around giving and getting gifts will be shared, as well as techniques for stewarding board members as donors and solicitors, and strategies for involving them in setting and achieving fundraising goals. Participants will come away with tools that help channel board members’ enthusiasm into becoming constructive fundraising partners and ambassadors for your organization. Session attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and share their own challenges and experiences around this topic.
