Learn what it takes to launch and manage a successful online fundraising campaign.

Check-in: 5:00 pm

Many nonprofits are finding that online fundraising has become a way to augment their traditional fundraising strategies. How do you get started, and what do you need to know? Join us for a special program in which we walk you through the process of choosing among various online methods, whether it’s raising funds directly through your web site, a giving portal, or via social networking sites.

In addition, our panelists offer advice on overseeing the online fundraising campaign, managing the technology, and mastering other important aspects of online fundraising to make your efforts a success. You’ll also hear a firsthand account from a start-up organization that has ventured successfully into online fundraising.

Anyone looking to venture into web-based fundraising for the first time or improve upon the efforts they have already started will have something to learn from this session.
