Monthly VNR Workshop
Building Long-Term Relationships with Foundations and Donors
Presenter: Dr. Tom Backer, VNR Advisory Board Chair
Date: Wednesday, February 26, 2025
Time: 12:00 – 1:00 pm
Learn: What tactics work best for nonprofits to keep in touch with their funders - Zooms, emails, print mailings, social media, phone calls, in-person meetings, site visits? What’s the right balance between “radio silence” between funding approaches and too many communications that might annoy the recipient? What should be shared and what shouldn’t? Join VNR Founder and Advisory Board Chair Dr. Tom Backer for a lively discussion on how to build good long-term relationships with funders, as part of a nonprofit’s overall approach to development. This workshop is Part II of VNR’s November 2024 learning event on How Fundraising Has Changed and How It Has Stayed the Same.
