Grassroots Fundraising

 In these turbulent, unpredictable times, are you rethinking your
organization’s reliance on one source of funding?

 Are you tired of chasing funding whose outcomes are constantly shifting
according to agendas that are not yours?

 Do you want to learn about alternative ways to support your
organization’s social mission?

Introductory Workshop on Grassroots Philanthropy
January 22, 2010

Join us in a three‐hour interactive presentation that examines some of our assumptions about money and social mission. Start rethinking how you raise money.
