Upcoming live webinars
Eyes Wide Open: How The Best Nonprofits Drive Impact with Executive Dashboards
Webinar date: April 9, 2026, 2:00 PM Eastern Time
Too many nonprofit leaders are forced to make high-stakes decisions without a clear, real-time picture of what’s really happening across their organization. When data lives in silos, reports take too long to produce, and priorities feel disconnected from results, even the most mission-driven teams can lose momentum. The most effective nonprofits solve this problem with a single, powerful tool: executive dashboards that bring clarity, alignment, and confidence to leadership decisions.
During this webinar Donald Summers draws on decades of experience helping high-impact nonprofits transform data chaos into actionable insight. He’ll show you how the best organizations use executive dashboards to unify strategy, programs, finance, and fundraising into one clear, shared view—so leaders, staff, and boards can see what matters most at a glance.
(FREE) TargetED: Competing in Saturated Funding Markets
Webinar date: April 13, 2026, 2:00 PM Eastern Time
More organizations than ever are applying for the same limited funding pools. Even strong programs are being declined, not because the work lacks merit, but because proposals fail to clearly communicate credibility, alignment, and distinct value.
In highly competitive environments, reviewers make fast judgments. If your proposal doesn’t immediately answer “Why this organization?” and “Why now?”, it risks blending in with dozens of similar submissions. Many organizations invest significant time writing applications without first assessing whether they are truly positioned to compete.
During this TargetED, Alice Ruhinke will help you strengthen your organizational background, executive summary, and strategic positioning so funders immediately understand why your organization is the right investment.
LIVE Workshops: Enhance Your AI Expertise
Webinar date: April 14 & 15, 2026, 2:00 PM Eastern Time
With the advent of so many AI tools, the process of developing and writing grant proposals is undergoing a transformative shift. These tools promise to streamline tasks, potentially enabling your organization to apply for more grants and secure greater funding. But the sheer volume and complexity of available AI technologies can be daunting, leaving many grant professionals feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about where to begin.
During this two-day workshop series (4.14 & 4.15), David Gates and Alice Ruhnke will guide you from the fundamentals of AI all the way through advanced strategies, giving you a comprehensive, practical foundation for using AI to transform your grant writing from start to finish.
