Board Fundraising Training with DRU/Mondawmin Healthy Families Inc.

This past Saturday, I had the privilege of working with the Executive Director and the Board of DRU/Mondawmin Healthy Families Inc. ("DRUM") in Baltimore.  They are a growing organization, seeking to diversify their revenue streams and I have been working with them on developing a fundraising plan.

Saturday, we held a Board-Only session, that included discussions around:

• Drafting a Case for Support and creating a Fundraising Tool Kit
• The process of engaging individuals and other organizations
  
• The Board's role in fundraising 
• Creating a "menu" of ways the Board can help with fundraising
• Setting give/get expectations for Board members, which is included in the Board job description
• The infrastructure needed for fundraising (donor database, donor record-keeping, etc.)
  
• How communciations goes hand-in-hand with a fundraising program

These are just a few topics we covered in a very productive session on Saturday.  I am excited and proud to be a part of the transformation at DRUM and to be working with the dedicated members of their Baord and staff.
