Do you lead peer-to-peer or community-based fundraising programs? Are you looking for new ways to engage and steward community members who organize these walks, read-a-thons, fitness, challenges, games nights, and social campaigns?

This one-hour interactive webinar shows you how to treat community fundraisers like valued volunteers, applying proven stewardship practices to build trust, sustain relationships, and increase revenue. You’ll examine motivations that community members have for engaging their peers, how they want charities to show appreciation, and what you can do to better support them.

This will be a fun, interactive webinar! Using Mentimeter, you’ll have the chance to reflect anonymously, brainstorm with peers, and practice new techniques in real time.

After attending this webinar, you’ll be able to:

- Identify common barriers to peer-to-peer fundraising engagement and practical solutions to overcome them

- Better support community members who share personal stories while fundraising

- Build stronger relationships with community members who fundraise and keep them engaged long-term
