Event Details

What is your Why? And How do you tell your story? At the core, Storytelling and Fundraising are both about empathy, listening and connecting to community and human emotion. We don’t give money simply because someone asked; we give to charitable causes because we were told a story, and we saw our life and our hopes in that story. This course shows how staff and volunteers can connect their hearts to the mission, build their own stories of their causes and translate them into action: Engaging others to care, to give time or treasure, and to recruit others. We will look at how to translate your mission’s message into paths that are both personal (1:1 meetings) and digital, from in-person events to online media and beyond.
