About This Event
Join Community Resource Center and Consultants for Good (C4G) on June 16, 2026, from 11am–12pm for a collaborative, interactive conversation on Diversifying Revenue: Fundraising Outside of Grants — a space to ask questions and connect directly with an expert.
This is part of our 2026 “Ask an Expert” series, that will feature practical conversations on key nonprofit challenges like Leading Organizations in Times of Change, Nonprofit Finance, Creating a Culture of Belonging, and additional sessions throughout the year!
Session Overview
Diversifying revenue beyond grants is a key focus for sustainable nonprofit growth. This session will explore practical strategies for expanding how organizations define and leverage resources for success.
Participants will learn approaches that go beyond monetary income, including engaging volunteers, cultivating board involvement, building staff capacity, strengthening internal communications, and organizing data — all factors that can support successful fundraising efforts. The session will also highlight the importance of relationship-building as a core element of long-term revenue diversification. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and discuss how to apply these strategies in their own organizations.
