Discover how creating a sense of psychological safety is an essential element to building trust and including everyone’s voice.

This is a part of the Building Up to Building Together webinar series. If this work interests you, we hope to see you in Seattle for Building Together 2026.

Organizations raising sustainable revenue aren't the ones with the best tactics - they're the ones who've mastered the integration of clear storytelling and strategic fundraising. Most fundraising courses ignore story clarity. Most storytelling courses skip fundraising strategy. We integrate both - because that's how it actually works. This isn't a storytelling course with some fundraising tips tacked on. And it's not a fundraising course that mentions storytelling in passing. It's the course that finally treats them as partners in building sustainable support.

In 7 weeks, you'll learn:

• Proven fundraising strategies: Development planning, annual giving, donor retention, stewardship systems, appeals that convert, major gift cultivation
• Strategic storytelling foundations: Brand clarity, donor psychology, story structure, authentic narratives that inspire action and most importantly belief
• The integration that makes both work: How to use story in every fundraising tactic, how to build fundraising strategy around your authentic voice

You're a great fit if:

• You're tired of fundraising feeling like pushing a boulder uphill
• You know your work is important but struggle to explain it clearly
• Your donor retention is lower than you'd like (and you're not sure why)
• You feel like you're always scrambling for stories or content
• You want to build sustainable support, not just get through the next campaign

Learn the foundations of strategic foresight and practical techniques that expand possibility, challenge assumptions, and explore alternative futures.

This is a part of the Building Up to Building Together webinar series. If this work interests you, we hope to see you in Seattle for Building Together 2026.

This two-part webinar series is for teams tasked with raising funds for AI initiatives, development leaders responsible for campaign strategy and case development, and nonprofit professionals working at the intersection of innovation, community impact, and public trust, and navigating the AI moment from both sides: funding AI initiatives and deploying AI tools in fundraising.

The Robots Are Funded focuses on campaign and fundraising strategy, including what “ethical AI” must include—bias risk, validation practices, and accountability to impacted communities.

The Robots Are Deployed shifts to implementation, examining CRM readiness, governance, and human oversight before AI automation goes live. Together, these sessions help teams build credible fundraising narratives and deploy AI with guardrails that protect donor trust.

These webinars will be recorded. The slides, recording, and any associated handouts will be sent to all registered attendees at the conclusion of the webinar.

Unlock smarter giving in our exclusive webinar on the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA). Fundraisers can use this opportunity to guide donors toward more effective giving strategies.

Although today’s nonprofits are facing historic challenges, our purpose is our power.

It’s the reason we tackle hunger, poverty, homelessness, addiction, mental health, barriers to education, and more. It’s what gives us the courage to innovate, collaborate, and never give up.

Reconnecting with your “why” has never been more important.

Because nonprofits are powered by purpose. YOU are powered by purpose.

Join us for the 2026 Nonprofit Leadership Conference on June 4 in downtown Tampa. Hundreds of nonprofit and business leaders will come together to recharge their purpose and discover bold new strategies to advance it.

Join us to be the change that changes everything.
