SUMMARY:Monthly Meeting: Building a Case for Support & Crafting Compelling Communications
DESCRIPTION:Building a Case for Support & Crafting Compelling Communications  \nWe believe that stories build community. We are all made of stories. Our stories make us human\, and they are how we relate to each other. This session focuses on using those stories to craft compelling communications\, including the big job of clearly articulating a strong case for support for your organization or for a major campaign\, as well as using that storyline in all of your communications about giving – from appeals to thank-you letters. \nPresenters: \n\nAllan Burrows\, Partner/CEO\, CapDev\nClare Jordan\, Vice President\, CapDev\n\nNetworking: 8 a.m.\nProgram: 8:30-9:30 a.m. \nEveryone is welcome to attend. The meeting is free for AFP members and $10 for non-members. \nREGISTER \nAllan Burrows has been with Capital Development Services since 1994\, and president since 2006.
