Get ready to SHARE! CORFA is hosting the next Friends SHARE zoom call and this month we’ll be focusing on the role an Annual Appeal can fit into your overall fundraising strategies.
Please join us on Tuesday, May 26th at 4:00 pm ET. Please RSVP by May 25th and we will send you a zoom link for the call. Registration is required in advance in order to receive the zoom link.
We will also have time at the end of the call to field any hot topics or urgent issues you may have. If you have a burning question for the call, that you’d like to discuss with other Friends, or you’re looking for expertise on a specific subject, please let us know and we’ll do our best to be prepared and find help! The sooner you can let us know, the better.
Our presenters for the May call will be:
- Sirena Lao, Executive Director, Don Edwards San Francisco Bay Wildlife Society
- Alison Schaub, Executive Director, Friends of Minnesota Valley NWR
The Zoom call is only for a member of a Friends group or their staff. Feel free to share this invite with your board members and other Friends groups. To ensure everyone can fully express themselves, ask tough questions, have their comments heard and respected, and be assured that conflict will be respectful the call will not be recorded, and we ask all participants to review and agree to our Safe Space Guidelines.
