They may seem intimidating but there are practical things that you can do to get started. Laurence A. Pagnoni, president of Laurence A. Pagnoni & Associates (LAPA), will take you through practical, doable action steps geared to organizations in start-up mode or new to the field of fundraising for endowments and capital campaigns.
LAPA has conducted 14 successful campaigns over the past ten years for organizations that, by traditional standards, were seen as not ready for the next level of fundraising. Come find out how we did it and test your level of readiness.
