Description:
Nonprofits work tirelessly to secure the resources they need, but many still struggle to understand whether their fundraising efforts are truly setting them up for long-term stability. With shifting trends, limited staff capacity, and competing priorities, it’s easy to feel unsure about where your funding is strong, where it’s vulnerable, and how to make smart decisions for the year ahead.
During this webinar, Sarah Barton will guide you through a simple, practical way to get clarity. She’ll walk you step-by-step through the Fundraising Health Checkup, a grounded assessment designed to help nonprofits quickly understand their current funding mix, identify hidden risks, and pinpoint areas where small strategic shifts can create meaningful improvement.
You’ll learn:
- the five core areas that drive sustainability;
- how to score your organization across 15 indicators of fundraising stability;
- where overreliance or vulnerability may exist in your current funding model;
- benchmarks for healthy diversification and how your organization compares;
- how to uncover your highest-impact opportunities for growth; and,
- how to set a realistic 90-day priority that strengthens stability without adding unnecessary work
