Workshop: Current Funder Communication (Dream Keeper)

Once awarded, the funder becomes your “funding partner”.  Our communication should change accordingly to nurture the new relationship and build towards successful programming and potential expanded funding.

Explore communication strategies to build a working partnership.  We will review communication modes, content, frequency, and roles.

Participants will receive tools to help develop gameplans to communicate to funding partners during various phases of organizational growth (i.e. new program; new leadership; progress/impact; changes & crisis).
