This document discusses fundraising and development for nonprofit boards. It provides 3 models for fundraising: prayer alone, pray and inform, and pray, inform and ask. The board's role in development is discussed, including being involved in planning, leading by example with donations, cultivating potential major donors, and thanking current donors. Successful fundraising involves identifying prospects, providing them with information, gaining their interest, involving them, and securing their investment. Special events are recommended as a way to raise funds and engage donors, staff, and volunteers. Details like advance promotion, follow up, and board involvement are emphasized as keys to a successful fundraising event.
