We’re so excited to kick off a new Friday series with Givebutter called Small But Mighty: How Small Nonprofits are Raising Big Dollars. As a “small” organization, hosting fundraising campaigns can be a daunting task. It’s typical to wonder... How do we get enough supporters? Who will fundraise on our behalf? What happens if we don’t reach our goal? Where do we even begin? Join Jon, Becky, Floyd Jones and some special guests as we break down how small organizations are raising BIG funds through grassroots fundraising.  In Part 1, we’re exploring how to tell your story and build your fundraising strategy. Tune in to get our playbook to find the right strategy for your org.
