In this interactive session, we&amp;rsquo;ll explore the fundamentals of fundraising and how volunteer professionals can be valuable partners in their organization&amp;rsquo;s fundraising efforts. We&amp;rsquo;ll walk through the donor journey, from identifying and cultivating supporters to solicitation and stewardship, and identify practical ways volunteer managers can help deepen relationships, connect people more closely to the mission, and build a stronger community of supporters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Speaker Bio:&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;As the Owner of The Binsfrahm Group,&amp;nbsp;Madeleine&amp;nbsp;(she/her) brings over 20 years of leadership experience across local, national, and international organizations - guiding teams to scale smartly, lead boldly, and grow sustainably.&amp;nbsp; Whether a client is looking for strategic planning, a fundraising strategy, or a strong business foundation,&amp;nbsp;Madeleine&amp;nbsp;brings the expertise and clarity to move them forward. Clients love her collaborative and community-centered approach as well as the flexibility required to operate in today&amp;rsquo;s operating climate.&lt;br /&gt;
