Thurs, May 4 Boys & Girls Clubs of American National Conference in Orlando, Florida

ASK for Anything Artfully! 

Imagine having a 3-sentence formula to know exactly what to say to ask for anything… and get an enthusiastic YES!  When we get clear on what we want, and why, we know who to ask. As we shake off false beliefs about the outcomes, we can focus on understanding the shared values and interests of our prospective giver and ask simply and with clarity. Oprah said, “We get in life what we have the courage to ask for.” Marcy’s formula gives you the courage to ask confidently and provides limitless opportunities to apply it for personal and professional success, forge incredible partnerships and generate massive amounts of money and resources to compose a good world. 

More info can be found here: https://web.cvent.com/event/d0868372-ca6c-46f4-8d7b-d13082f60109/summary. Register by Sunday, Feb. 19 to get the early bird rate of $400. Registration closes on Monday, April 24.

Major gifts are critical to building your resilience in these remarkable times… critical to preparing you for whatever is ahead… critical to fueling your big vision and giving your donors the opportunity to be significant. Join Marcy for this two-day AFP Deep Dive workshop and dig deep into creating a donor relationship action plan. Determine what you need in place for success and how to inspire your Board and colleagues to WANT to help you build authentic connections (not ask). Create exactly what to say to ask and how to think about money that brings joy and confidence to your work. Whatever size “major” is for you, embrace the opportunity to raise more money, do more good, and have fun doing it! Register here: https://afpdeepdives.org.
