CONFERENCES     -    

Attend Toronto Congress, courtesy of Pareto Fundraising

In a year when funding is tight and many organizations are cutting their training budgets, Pareto Fundraising has found a new way to express its passion for helping charities grow. The company is offering four full passes to AFP Greater Toronto Chapter’s Congress 2009, set for November 30 through December 2.

Intended for fundraisers who would otherwise not be able to attend, each pass covers the registration fee for the full three days of Congress. Travel and lodging are the responsibility of the passholders.

At Pareto Fundraising, we are passionate about helping charities grow. One of the best ways to boost the capacity of charities is through training and professional development, says the company’s North American regional director Jonathon Grapsas. As we become better fundraisers, we can raise more money and make the world a better place faster.

Criteria for passes

  1. Candidates must be employed by a nonprofit or charity and responsible for fundraising.
  2. Candidates must work for an organization that is not sending anyone else to Congress.

To apply for one of these passes, tell Pareto Fundraising in 500 words or less what you hope to learn from your attendance at the conference and how that will help you in fundraising for your cause when you get back.

Mail your response to ruthann.richardson@paretofundraising.com by Thursday, November 5. The company will notify the successful applicants by November 12.
