Build a Campaign in a Day Workshop
Are you a nonprofit looking for support to build the materials you need to fuel your next fundraising campaign? Are you a 501 (c) (3) in good standing (or have a fiscal sponsor) with an annual budget between $500,000 and $1 million? Are you available to join us in person in downtown Denver on August 26? Then you are just the nonprofit we are looking for!
Colorado Nonprofit Association invites you to apply for this hands-on, high-impact, interactive workshop to build the assets you need for your next fundraising campaign in one day. We’ve invited experts from Barefoot PR and PBS12 to guide you through the day.
At the end of the workshop, participants will leave with all of the materials needed to run a short-term fundraising campaign, including:
-
Key messages and content for your campaign
-
A communications plan to guide your outreach over the campaign period
-
Creative assets designed in Canva to help you promote your campaign through email, social media and direct outreach
-
A 15-second and 30-second video interview
Participation is limited to 6 nonprofit organizations. If selected, your organization may send up to TWO participants to attend the full day.
Participants will be selected based on the materials submitted in the application, ability to attend in person on August 26 and agreement to complete the pre-work required to maximize the impact of this workshop. Applications to participate are due July 17, 2026.
