SUMMARY:(FREE) Impact Capital and the Spectrum of Social Enterprises
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is offered by GrantStation.\n\nWednesday\, February 22nd\, 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM ET\n\nRegistration Fee: FREE \nREGISTER NOW\n\nGrowing your nonprofit requires innovation. \nBut many organizations hesitate to try something new because they fear how it will affect finances. \nTo overcome this\, you need new ways of thinking about raising capital to help you fund the good work you do\, which means you should explore all the funding sources that are available for your organization. \nFor example\, nonprofits with earned-revenue (i.e.\, social enterprises) can often access impact capital and non-traditional funding sources to scale their programs and projects. \nBut what if you don’t consider your organization a social enterprise? \nYou still may be able to access impact capital—because social enterprises fall onto a spectrum. It’s not always black and white. \nTaking the time to understand where your organization fits on this spectrum will allow you to determine whether your organization is a good fit for non-traditional funding sources. \nDuring this free webinar\, Paul Wright will help you understand different social impact models. You’ll explore the spectrum of social enterprise components which you can apply to your own organization and programs\, so you can determine whether you have the opportunity to access non-traditional funding sources. \nYou will: \n\nsee examples of innovations in the public\, private\, and philanthropic sectors;\nlearn about innovative business models that combine earned revenues and social impact;\napply an innovative framework to assess your own organization;\nexplore the difference between sustainable and self-sufficient models; and\,\ndetermine whether raising impact capital is right for your organization.\n\nYou’ll walk away ready to grow your nonprofit with innovative thinking. \nThis session is perfect for nonprofit leaders who are curious about whether non-traditional capital is a good fit for their organization. \nThis is the first webinar in Paul Wright’s Innovate Now learning series. The second session\, Innovate and Grow: Raising Impact Capital\, will help you understand the non-traditional funding sources that many nonprofits can access. \n\n\nDate\nWednesday\, February 22\, 2023 – 2 PM EST\n\n\nDuration\n60 Minutes\n\n\nQuestions? Call\n1-877-784-7268.\n\n\nPolicies\n\nYou will receive two GrantStation emails: \n1. A copy of your paid invoice\n2. A confirmation email from Zoom for the webinar with the login credentials \nIf you do not receive the confirmation email within 48 hours of registering\, please email or call 1-877-784-7268. \nGrantStation does not refund registration fees. Fees may be applied to any webinar scheduled within 30 days. \nAfter the webinar\, you will receive an email with a link to the recording and any handouts. \n\n\n\nPresenter\n\n\nPaul Wright\n\n\n\nPaul is the President of Wright Venture Services. He’s had a 23-year career in community economic development finance and now he shares what he’s learned with social entrepreneurs and organizations that serve them. He’s often called the Common Good Coach because of his passion to help mission-driven leaders create more good in the world through their enterprise and leadership.

(PLUS you’ll get hands-on practice constructing a Logic Model right on the spot!)\n\nYou’ll see how flipping the Logic Model on its side to create “The Bottom-Up Logic Model” turns it into a powerful lens for spotting\, diagnosing\, and fixing problems in our program plans and change initiatives. \nBONUS: Through the Collaboration Logic Model\, you’ll learn how the Bottom-Up Logic Model can be used to map out the work of your community teams and partnerships to make sure you maximize your collective mpact. \n\n\nDate\nThursday\, February 23\, 2023 – 2 PM EST\n\n\nDuration\n90 Minutes\n\n\nQuestions?

SUMMARY:Spotlight on Community-Centric Fundraising
DESCRIPTION:This session is offered by the Minnesota Council of Nonprofits.\n\nTuesday\, March 21st\, 11:00 AM – 5:00 PM ET\n\nRegistration Fees: $129 for Members\, $169 for Nonmembers.  Please log into the Member Portal to find the member discount code\, or email hilaria@dev.wvnpa.org. \nREGISTER NOW\nCommunity-Centric Fundraising (CCF) is a grassroots movement that seeks to move philanthropy and fundraising forward in a way that centers racial and economic justice. CCF\, and its 10 Principles\, were introduced to the nonprofit world by a collective of nonprofit fundraisers of color in 2018. You’ve probably heard of the concept\, but as a young(ish) movement\, many in the nonprofit sector are still unsure how to implement CCF in their own practice. \nThis one-day training of four sessions is designed to support nonprofit fundraisers in better understanding the Community-Centric Fundraising movement\, its Principles\, and how to both incorporate CCF into their work and help advance the effort to further fundraising practices that are grounded in race\, equity\, and social justice. \nParticipants of this Spotlight will: \n\n\n\n\nLearn about the philosophy and principles of CCF\nExamine the inequitable history of philanthropy\, and possibilities for the future\nExplore how to move fundraising practices forward to focus on social justice\nHear from practitioners who have applied CCF at their organization\nGain knowledge and strategies they will be able to implement in their own work\n\n\n\n\nSpotlights are day-long virtual trainings\, offering four to five 60-minute sessions\, each exploring a different aspect of a specific topic. Each session will be led by experienced nonprofit leaders and subject-matter experts. Spotlights are designed to offer practical information that can be applied immediately along with larger-picture questions and possibilities to consider for the long-term. \nThe Spotlight will be hosted by Mallory Mitchell of CCF MN. \nSchedule\nAll times listed in Central Time \n10 – 11 a.m. // Introduction to CCF\nThe history of philanthropy is rooted in inequity. Some of these same narratives and systems remain embedded in the sector today. In order to move the work of nonprofits forward\, and to best serve our communities\, a re-examination of the philosophies and practices of fundraising is needed. The Community-Centric Fundraising movement aims to center social justice and reduce harm in nonprofit work. This session will touch on the history and systemic problems with nonprofits and foundations\, introduce the Principles and key concepts of the movement\, and share the values and vision of CCF.\nAndrea Hite\, associate program director\, Breakthrough Twin Cities \n \n11:30 a.m. // 12:30 p.m. – CCF in Action\nSession description forthcoming. \n1:30 – 2:30 p.m. // Getting Buy-in from your Organization\nAre you interested in implementing CCF at your nonprofit? Great! Now what? Join this session to hear from a fundraising professional about her experience of making the case for CCF at her organization. She’ll share how she presented the opportunities to leadership\, what has been implemented so far\, and some potential strategies for how to get from maybe to yes in the future. Transformational change is a process; and can start with building support and strengthening your case to bring others along with you in the work.\nPie Paulson\, grants specialist and Mala Thao\, vice president of individual philanthropy\, Greater Twin Cities United Way \n \n3 – 4 p.m. // What it Means to be an Anti-Capitalist Fundraiser\nCCF is deconstructing the way we have historically viewed fundraising. One thing that comes to focus from it all is that fundraising is hard work. Whether you’ve been doing it for years or just starting out\, the physical and mental tolls can be overwhelming. As we seek to continue changing the way we think about fundraising for a more equitable world\, we also need change the way we take care of ourselves and our relationships with power and wealth. This session touches on how community healing\, re-examining our structures\, and becoming an anti-capitalist fundraiser helped battle doubts\, solidarity\, and provided continuing hope for the future of the fundraising field.\nCarlos García León\, individual giving manager\, Chicago Shakespeare Theater \nThis event is offered in partnership with CCF MN\, a collective for Minnesota-based fundraisers who are committed to the CCF movement.

In order to ensure you get the most from this learning\, you will be asked to complete a small homework assignment between the two workshops. \nYou will leave the workshop knowing how values-based narratives can guide your organization’s communications\, and materials to use during this legislative session to advance your priorities. \nThis workshop will be held over two days: April 12 and April 13\, from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Central. \nEvent Details\nThis virtual event will take place on the Zoom platform.

This endeavor served as the testing ground for a national company\, GrantStation\, which opened its Internet doors in the fall of 2001. Cindy built this business because she believes that grantseeking requires a thorough understanding of the variety and scope of grantmakers and sound knowledge of the philanthropic playing field. Her life’s work has been to level that playing field\, creating an opportunity for all nonprofit organizations to access the wealth of grant opportunities across the U.S. and throughout the world.

It’s perfect for executive directors\, development personnel\, bookkeepers\, and grant professionals.  \n\n\nDate\nMonday\, May 1\, 2023 – 2 PM EDT\n\n\nDuration\n45 Minutes\n\n\nQuestions?
