What is the benefit of this course?

This three-part webinar will cover a broad array of topics: the long history connecting nursing and philanthropy; the overlap in the values of nursing and philanthropy; what it means to "build a culture of giving;" stages of fundraising; kinds of giving; and why nurses need to be involved in philanthropy. If you want your organization to increase its share of philanthropic dollars, what do you have to do in the next year, the next three years--culture building, infrastructure development, stewardship, or all of the above? At the end of this series, attendees are expected to put together an individual development plan that articulates their goals, required actions, any needed resources, and measures of success.
