THE FUNDAMENTALS OF FUNDRAISING
With Ken Bartels '73 and Nick Sakellariadis '73
Thursday, December 5th, 7:00 - 8:00pm ET
ClassACT HR73 offers pro bono assistance to nonprofits called Bridge Partners, which are either founded or run by classmates, as well as supporting classmates who are involved in organizations that want to change the world.
In order to help our Bridge Partners to further their objectives, we are offering assistance in a variety of skills related to the success of non-profits via the Bridge Toolbox Series. These webinars are recorded and archived on our website for public use.
On December 5th, classmates Ken Bartels and Nick Sakellariadis will share information on how to successfully fundraise for your organization.
