Is Your Organization Positioned to Close Six-, Seven-, and Eight-Figure Gifts? Fundraising Across the Diaspora will help you get there.
Finding grants is one thing. Closing transformative gifts is another.
Fundraising Across the African Diaspora™ (FATAD) is a global professional fundraising community for nonprofit leaders and fundraisers who want to position their organizations to close larger, transformative gifts.
FATAD gives you tactics and strategies you can actually put to work—from engaging and cultivating funders for major gifts, to building corporate partnerships, to structuring, soliciting, and closing the ask.
Through live virtual fundraising office hours and Liberatory Fundraising Labs™, you’ll move beyond simply finding grant opportunities and strengthen the skills you need to build relationships, make stronger asks, close larger gifts, and steward funders for the long term.
And you’ll learn directly from Kia Croom, a global fundraiser with 26 years of experience who has raised more than $1 billion, including six-, seven-, and eight-figure gifts.
We go live October 1.
Applications are now open—and there is no cost to apply.
Position Your Organization for Bigger Gifts.
