Riding The Wave: How To Survive A Tough Economy And Stay On Mission
Fasten Your Seatbelts, its going to be a bumpy ride!
As a seasoned nonprofit professional, you don't need to read the headlines to know there are rocky times ahead. Keeping the doors open for many non profits has become a very real challenge that many are losing. Non profits that depend on one or two major sources of funding are facing funding cuts that threaten cancellation of programs and loss of key staff.
And its going to get worse before it gets better.
Foundation and corporate funding is down for 2008-09. The pool of individual donors is shrinking.
How do organizations prepare for the coming storm? Where should the board of directors be focusing their attention? How do you survive while keeping on mission so as not to jeopardize future funding?
This one day seminar is designed to give nonprofit managers and board members the tools they need to survive a tough economy without falling off mission or losing critical funding.
