About

Live events are not dead—that is because effective virtual events are live events with authentic engagement. Growth for Good Partners and Tri-State area fundraising experts, Katherine DeFoyd and Lilliana Marques, will lead participants in this interactive virtual training on how to produce a live virtual event with outstanding fundraising and donor engagement outcomes.

Participants will be empowered to present a live event virtually and learn actionable strategies for five elements for producing a successful virtual event. All workshop participants will receive blank blueprint virtual event planning templates, lists of technology resources, and other ideas for producing a smashingly successful, enjoyable, and profitable fundraising event.
