Storytelling Tactics to Raise Money and Increase Engagement
A Fixer Foundations Training 

People love stories. Our brains are wired for stories. So why do so many nonprofits still focus on facts, statistics, and lists of programs? 


 If you want to engage more people and turn them into ambassadors for your organization, you must use simple storytelling tactics. Getting other people to care as much as you do about your organization is critical to enlisting volunteers and donors so we can achieve our mission. 


 It’s also easier than you think and costs zero extra dollars. 


 You may only have your supporters’ attention for a moment. Don’t lose them. How can you get your message out in the time it takes individuals to “swipe right” or click “delete.” We must learn how to break through. 


 Once you learn these simple tips, you can easily turn your volunteers, board members, staff, and stakeholders into powerful messengers and fundraising machines.

Join me for this jam-packed training!

"The Storytelling session was far more than I expected. The approach presented was practical and inspired me to consider resource mobilisation with a new perspective from those I employed when I worked in a United Nations agency. As a Board President of the Wells International Foundation, I appreciated the practical and common sense techniques shared with us. Thank you! Merci! Gracias! Shukran!"
