Boost your library fundraising with senior and reunion class campaigns featuring targeted projects. | |
Join us online to consider a fresh approach to fundraising for your library. You will be introduced to McMaster University's unique model that raised over a quarter-million dollars by involving senior and reunion classes and learn how you can apply this strategy to your institution. | |
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
Advancement managers and library leaders will be better able to increase their library fundraising dollars by more effectively approaching senior and reunion classes with well-defined projects. Please note that this event will not cover fundraising for comprehensive or whole-library capital renovation efforts.
