About

The world of foundation fundraising is increasingly competitive, and it can be difficult to get a funder's attention. You're building strong, effective programs, doing your research, and sending in proposals to the funders that care about your work. What more could you be doing?

Have you thought about building relationships?

It's not just sending in proposals: You could be more strategic in cultivating meaningful professional relationships with grantmakers, thoughtfully reaching out and building credibility that will pay off in the long run. This self-paced learning course will outline the process, including tips for making initial contact with funders, how to continue the conversation, and how to authentically engage without (always) asking for money.
