Who Should Attend:
This session is geared toward all nonprofit leaders who are involved in telling their organization's stories. Individuals who work with nonprofits to help tell their stories (marketing agencies, freelance writers, etc.) are also encouraged to attend!
What to expect:
You’ll gain practical tools for sharing stories in a trauma-informed, empowering way, positioning those we serve as the main characters of their own narratives. As fundraisers, we have a responsibility to our community and stakeholders to present our work and the people we serve with thoughtfulness and integrity. By reframing our messaging and storytelling, we can influence societal perceptions, fostering greater understanding and support for those we serve.
This session will begin with insights from lived experiences and transition into trauma-informed storytelling techniques. With practical examples and tools, you will learn how and why to incorporate this approach into not only fundraising but all aspects of your organization. As you gain confidence in your new skills, we will move into a hands-on workshop using real materials from your organization to reframe the stories. This is an excellent opportunity to bring your end-of-year giving materials or any marketing pieces where you share stories!
Following the workshop, there will be a dedicated 30 minutes for networking to find encouragement, build connections, and practice ethical storytelling in your organization’s ‘elevator pitch’.
