A collaboration between Evolve Giving Group and Prizmah
This 2-day intensive training will offer an affordable, hands-on approach to guide heads of school, development professionals, and volunteer leadership to explore new ways to generate revenue, engage lay leaders and streamline development processes for increased success.
