Do you ever ask yourself these questions or have similar thoughts?

What exactly is a CFRE? I wonder if a seasoned fundraising professional has ever dealt with this? Is it worth it to get a CFRE? I wish I could ask someone who has more experience what they would do. How do I start if I am interested in getting a CFRE? I wish I had access to someone who might know....

If so, this Happy Hour formatted program is for you! We have secured some of our most experienced local fundraisers, from around the Triad, who work for a variety of nonprofits in a variety of roles, to come together with the sole purpose of sharing their knowledge.

You can submit any questions you may have with your registration, email to Pam Anglin (pamanglin77@gmail.com) before the program, or come prepared the night of.
