Essentials of Fundraising Testimonials
“The Essentials of Fundraising Program packed a ton of great information into five classes that flew by so quickly. I still take out my Essentials binder and refer to what I have learned. The best part is that the classes are taught by our very own colleagues who understand the fundraising climate in Rochester, and they are happy to follow up and share more information if requested. I have tremendous respect for my instructors and colleagues, some of whom have become great friends as well as trusted advisors. Essentials provides the foundation to a great fundraising experience.”
Alison Martinez Finstad, Development Manager
Safe Journey
“The advantage of participating in The Essentials of Fundraising, was connecting with the likes of Mark Peterson, CFRE, President & CEO, Greater Rochester Enterprise; Kelly Gagan, CFRE, Vice President, Nazareth College; Carolyn Hunt, CFRE, Grant Specialist, Rochester City School District; Colleen Brade, CFRE, Director of Donor Stewardship, Rochester Institute of Technology; Karen Gaffney, CFRE, Vice President Partners Foundation, Al Sigl Community of Agencies, and Eric Shoen, CFRE, Director of Gift Planning, Rochester General Hospital. After the first of five classes, you will realize that you’ve gotten your tuition’s worth through added knowledge and through networking.”
