The Rasmuson Foundation is bringing back Michael Balaoing to Alaska! Michael joined Foraker in 2013 at the Leadership Summit and inspired us all with his pointed tips and energetic techniques to craft better nonprofit storytellers. He is back for a half-day training - don't miss it!
Your Story Matters: How to Inspire Donors & Supporters
Better stories = bigger dollars. Hollywood knows the formula, so do the nation’s leading nonprofits. Learn the entertainment industry’s best storytelling secrets from your own private coach. You will build your “playlist” of go-to stories to inspire, motivate, encourage and lead – from your board and staff to your donors, volunteers and supporters. Hear powerful, authentic examples from your peers that will help drive real results: more money, resources, and support for your nonprofit.
This special workshop immediately engages you – in groups, on camera, and on your feet – with tools and narratives that you’ll use in your next staff meeting, fundraising appeal, or volunteer drive. If you have one, please bring your smartphone.
Find out how to:
1) Instantly connect with and engage any audience – especially donors;
2) Tell your own compelling stories that open hearts, minds, checkbooks and networks;
3) Share personal memories of impact and inspiration with confidence.
Expect to be energized by what truly lasts: unforgettable stories, deeper connections, personal feedback, practical tools and professional advice from a 25-year veteran of strategic communications and advisor to the world’s biggest philanthropists and foundations. This training has been customized for The Foraker Group to help make you a better fundraiser, manager, advocate and nonprofit leader.
