Special Guest: Beth Williams 'Creating A Development Plan'

By creating an Annual Development Plan for your organization, you'll build the structure for fundraising: Grants, Direct mail, Special Events, Major Gifts, Planned Giving and Donor Recognition. Beth will also show you how to prioritize your efforts based on your donor's interests and developing a budget to support those efforts.
