In “Making Connections: The Art of Building Sustainable Donor Relationship and Long-Term Funding Resources,” Liz Prince, MEd and Kelly Truesdell, MPH, CHES explore potential funding structures for collegiate recovery programs, and examine ways in which CRP professionals can build donor relationships or work with advancement and development offices to do so. They discuss topics such as knowing your needs and expenses, having an elevator pitch for the program, sharing student testimonials to tell your story while still protecting anonymity, and building relationships with any potential supporter – especially since people may donate more than just financially.
Staff Chats take place on Tuesdays at 12pm ET and explore new topics each week!
