This toolkit includes a few resources to help offset NVC training event-related expenses through sponsorships, in-kind donations, and partnerships with like-minded organizations. We hope to continue to expand these resources — be sure to sign up for our e-newsletter to keep apprised as more fundraising, grant writing, and sponsorship resources are added here.
Is your NVC organization just starting out and your resources are very minimal? Is this the first year you'll be hosting workshops from Marshall Rosenberg and you're a little overwhelmed by the event-related expenses? Why not form a mutually-beneficial strategic alliance with a like-minded organization with more resources?
While not "fundraising" necessarily, forming such strategic alliances can most definitely improve your financial options.
Reduce your event expenses, retain more event revenue, or offer more scholarships by finding organizations and businesses willing to provide an in-kind donation to support your workshop or event. In-kind donations are much easier to obtain than you may think and can include things like printing, advertising, event venues, catering, audio-visual equipment and much more. Use the tools below to help you get started.
