CHOOSE YOUR FUNDRAISING

METHODS

One of the most common misconceptions about nonprofit funding is that

it all comes from grants. And that grants are easy to get.

Want to start a new organization?

Just get a grant!

Strapped for program cash? “Why don’t you email Oprah?” (If you haven’t
heard that one yet, you will!)

There are so many ways to fund your nonprofit – and almost all of them
are far more effective than trying to hit up a celebrity for money:

Grants
Individual donations

Events (galas, showcases, “-thons” like walk-a-thons or phone-a-thons)
Major gifts

Planned giving
Member dues
Sponsorships

Earned income (providing training, renting your space, selling goods)
Monthly giving programs

Cause marketing and business partnerships
...and more!
