We all know that we are supposed to build relationships with our donors. But what does that mean on a day to day basis? And how can you build more relationships without acquiring more donors? And what makes people want to keep giving? All of these are the questions that haunt small and large organizations alike. In this fast paced luncheon presentation, Kim Klein will present practical methods for bringing people into your work and helping them want to stay with you.
