The not-so-good-news? There are almost too many resources available. How do you know which ones are the most effective? And how do you find the time to learn from them?
That’s why we are thrilled to introduce Donorbox Academy, an ever-changing ecosystem of nonprofit knowledge! In this blog, we’ll tell you all about this new educational tool and the nonprofit courses it offers, including:
Donorbox Academy is a credible source of online nonprofit courses that provide nonprofit professionals and volunteers with the skills and tools needed to raise funds and effectively help others. Each course is designed by a nonprofit expert and is geared towards individuals with all experience levels.
Our courses may include webinars, workshops, guided assignments, expert coaching, personalized learning, useful tools and resources, the opportunity to network with nonprofit peers, and more. We gather all of this knowledge into one place and guide you through it, enabling you to use your limited time and resources effectively to learn applicable skills and become a better nonprofit professional.
The Academy has launched with two educational courses available: 30 Days to Your Year-End Campaign and Peer-to-Peer Fundraising with Donorbox.
30 Days to Your Year-End Campaign is our first live course. It combines virtual learning sessions with weekly tools, resources, and assignments to enable you to create an effective and powerful end-of-year campaign. We’ll walk you through each step of the process, coming together as a group each week to review your progress and talk through the next steps. You’ll end the course with a fully-planned year-end fundraising campaign. And you’ll be able to enjoy that holiday pie knowing you’ve been prepared for months!
Donorbox Academy’s 30 Days to Your Year-End Campaign course is also recognized by CFRE International (Certified Fund Raising Executive) as qualifying for five (5) CFRE Education credits.
The pilot live course launches on August 3, but you can reserve your seat now for just $129! This special pilot pricing will end on launch day, so be sure to book your spot soon.
Peer-to-Peer Fundraising with Donorbox, our first free course, is available right now and is a great way to try our Donorbox Academy if you aren’t ready for a paid course. This detailed course offers a plethora of videos, resources, and templates that will walk you through creating and executing an effective peer-to-peer fundraising campaign.
