There are more than 100 nonprofit organizations in the chamber’s Nonprofit Alliance and all members and guests are welcome to attend. Attendees are invited to bring news and handouts to share about their organization’s upcoming events.
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. You will learn what strategies work best and what strategies you may want to leave behind. You will walk away with a plan that will allow you to raise money even in these weird times.

We got great feedback from our last event and are excited to announce our 3rd #LinkedInLocal San Jose! We’re trying a new venue this time around and are looking forward to seeing you all at the Silicon Valley Capital Club!
What’s special about a #LinkedInLocal Meetup?
#LinkedInLocal is a meetup concept with the purpose to meet the people behind the LinkedIn profiles. Many people connect with others on LinkedIn with the intention of meeting to explore the possibility of doing business in the future. But life often gets in the way and pretty soon that person becomes just another forgotten 1st level connection. No longer, with #LinkedInLocalSanJose.
