“Building relationships isn’t optional in fundraising, it’s inherent in the definition of what fundraising is.”
One cannot overstate how important the concept of ‘relationship fundraising’ is to fundraisers. Since Ken Burnett coined the term in his 1992 book the idea has become one of the dominant modes of thought about fundraising. Yet there is still little agreement among practitioners about what relationship marketing actually is, what a relationship approach might mean for the way we steward our relationships with supporters and crucially, whether it even works.
We’re proud to have partnered with world renowned fundraising expert Dr Adrian Sargeant, technology provider Bloomerang and Rogare, a world-renowned think tank for fundraising, to sponsor groundbreaking research by Dr Adrian Sargeant, Jen Shang and Rogare’s director Ian MacQuillin.
In today’s economic climate, there is more pressure than ever to ensure a steady stream of fundraising revenue and increase fundraising results with limited resources. To meet that challenge one must analyze current fundraising activities and develop an effective annual development plan to capitalize on strengths and improve areas of weakness. At the October 20, 2011 AFP Northeast Indiana luncheon, fundraising consultant Robert Croft, CFRE presented this program to show you how to conduct a self guided development audit to evaluate your current fundraising efforts, which donor metrics are most critical to track for growth, and how to create a plan that is unique to your organization that will improve your fundraising results.

This presentation provides information organizations can use as they seek to implement a volunteer program.

Many entrepreneurs – social, triple bottom line or otherwise – do not avail themselves of all potential capital sources when seeking funding to grow or scale, limiting prospects to cash flow their initiatives. This seminar explores a range of options for funding: external in the marketplace, internal within an organization, new ideas and classics not to overlook.

23. For the 18th year in a row, The Hartford will be the Presenting Sponsor and host of the Walk Against Hunger, one of our most important annual fundraising events. In addition to providing an outstanding facility, logistical services, entertainment, and food for our 2010 Walk event… over 1,200 dedicated employees formed 22 walk teams. Together they raised an astounding $162,082! In turn, The Hartford made a one-time matching gift of $100,000 to Foodshare to both honor their staff member’s achievement and celebrate the firm’s 200 th anniversary. Throughout the year, volunteers from The Hartford also make a difference by participating in nearly every hunger-fighting program that Foodshare has to offer. From early spring through early winter, volunteers from The Hartford grow fresh fruits and veggies in area gardens such as Varney Farm and Auer Farm. Groups spend many hours sorting donated produce at our Regional Market facility. Or they sort bulk bread donations and other grocery items at our Bloomfield distribution center and reclamation facility. Groups also tackle special one-day projects for us on the United Way’s annual Day of Caring . At offsite events, volunteers from The Hartford staff Foodshare information tables, give speeches describing our efforts to end hunger, and present our Hunger 101 awareness-raising group activity. And they support the annual Turkey and a Twenty Campaign each November… an event every bit as important as the Walk Against Hunger itself. "The Hartford is a proud supporter of Foodshare and its efforts to fight hunger in the greater Hartford area. Throughout The Hartford’s history – and still strong today – is a rich tradition of giving back to the communities where we live and work. We remain dedicated to providing resources and support to help our communities achieve what's ahead." – Andy Napoli, President of Consumer Markets, The Hartford In fact, The Hartford’s support is so formidable, that they would easily have been Foodshare’s top business donor of 2010, however, they graciously asked to be removed from consideration in order to give other area businesses an opportunity to be recognized. Over the past two decades, The Hartford , along with their employees and their families have raised well over one million dollars to help alleviate hunger in the greater Hartford area. In deepest appreciation for their ongoing support, we recognize The Hartford as April’s Donor Spotlight recipient. Google Images and Videos
