Finding Donors for Your Nonprofit

The program will teach you how to identify and cultivate high net worth individuals, and how to find foundations and funding sources that are focused on your mission and programs.  You will learn how to use the latest technology and prospecting techniques to research prospective donors.  As a "take away" we will email you a detailed prospecting resource, "Panning for Gold", that you can use throughout the development process.  This is the third time JF Smith & Associates is sponsoring this seminar at the beautiful Pyramid Club in downtown Philadelphia.  Here's what one past attendee had to say:

"For those looking to cultivate major donors, this practical seminar is a map of the gold mine of information available to everyone."
