Hello everyone,

I am writing at this time to remind you of the next Nonprofit Net 
meeting -
Tuesday, January 15 from 10.00 AM to 12.00 PM at the Meeting Room 
in Cary
Library, 1874 Massachusetts Ave. Lexington, MA (in Lexington 
Center).

The topic of the seminar is: "How to Cultivate Donor Prospects." 
Major gift
donors need to be cultivated often over long periods of time. 
Initial gifts
are often small and a donor's philanthropic potential is often 
overlooked.
The cultivation process is the "art of the ask". It includes 
identifying the
prospects, designing individual solicitation plans where you 
softly tell the
story of your organization and the difference that can be made by the
donors. It requires, among other things, good infrastructure, 
training of
staff and board members in the fine details of thanking, looking 
for cues,
setting up follow up meetings, and asking. All this needs to 
supported by
appropriate collateral materials. These and many other aspects of
cultivating donor prospects shall be discussed in this seminar. 
The focus
shall be on the practical side and geared to smaller nonprofits. 
Do not miss
this seminar if your organization is considering a formal program to
cultivate potentially large donor prospects.

The seminar will be conducted by Hillel Korin, Executive Vice 
President of
The Ostroff Group, a consulting firm involved in Development, 
Fundraising,
Strategic Planning & Marketing for Nonprofit Organizations. 
Hillel has more
than 30 years experience in the fundraising and resource 
development field.
Some of the organizations and institutions that have benefited 
from his
expertise include: The Waldorf School of Baltimore, Flying J 
Ranch in Denver
, Solomon Schechter School of Westchester, The Partnership for 
Excellence in
Jewish Education, Brandeis University in Waltham Massachusetts, 
The Combined
Jewish Philanthropies of Greater Boston, The Boys and Girls Club 
of Waltham
and The New England Aquarium. He is a board member of several 
nonprofits
including the American Jewish Committee, Boston Chapter and Brandies
University Hillel Foundation.
