Online Fundraising for Local Action

Orton Family Foundation

Bake sales might get you a chocolate fix, but these days they won't get you far enough in fundraising. If you need cash to fund local community and environmental projects, it's all about Kickstarter and Twitter, crowdsourcing and websourcing donations and support. Whether you're looking to start a community garden, clean up a river, or launch a youth engagement initiative, it pays to know how to use the web to seek out support. Join us for a webinar on integrating online, grassroots fundraising and peer-to-peer campaigns into your fundraising strategy, geared toward nonprofit development directors, nonprofit founders who have to act like development directors, and their funders who are interested in learning more about online fundraising. You'll learn the tricks of the trade from Brandon Whitney, Co-Founder and COO of ioby - a platform that has helped community organizers raise more than $262,000 and succesfully fund 125 local environmental projects.
