Special Events That Rock - Thursday, August 9th
David Drake, Director of Development, Maryland SPCA and Fundraising/Communications Consultant
How do your special events measure up? Are you getting the most "bang for your buck"? This session will help you learn how to design events that both raise money and reinforce your mission. Special events are huge undertaking for nonprofit organizations. Some organizations launch into them expecting to raise big dollars, and come away finding that expenses spiraled out of control, staff are exhausted, and volunteers are discouraged. This session will help you head of these frustrations by setting the expectations for your event first, and by tying the event to your mission, making it a really special event that helps bring your supporters closer to you.

| How to Start a Nonprofit: Planning and Preparation Webinar
Dr. Tracey L. Durant, Director of Professional Development, Maryland Nonprofits
If you are contemplating creating a nonprofit organization, a little homework could save you a lot of time and aggravation. Is starting a nonprofit even the best option for what you're trying to accomplish? What all would it entail? Find out what "tax-exempt nonprofit" means, both practically and legally, and what this status will afford an organization. This webinar will clearly present the key steps required in order to establish a viable organization for IRS consideration of 501(c)(3) tax-exemption. After taking the webinar, if you decide to move forward with forming a nonprofit, you may also want to take "Forming a Nonprofit: The Paperwork."

Board Orientations and Handbooks
Mara Winters, Director of Special Projects, Maryland Nonprofits
You have invited all the right people to be on your board for the right reasons and they have said, "YES." Now what? How do you get them up to speed, productive, and engaged as quickly as possible? A big part of the answer is orientation. Don't assume because a new board member has previous experience on a board that anyone explained to them what their job is and sometimes more importantly, what it is not. Many challenges of boards (poor attendance, lack of interest, no participation in fundraising, no follow-through on projects) can be avoided by appropriately orienting board members and giving them the tools they need to be great board members. This half-day session will cover board job descriptions and expectations, the best timing for orientation, which structure will work best for different organizations, how to involve existing board members, and the creation and use of board member handbooks. This program is most appropriate for board members and staff that support board operations. Participants will leave with handouts and outlines that can be incorporated into your orientation programs and handbook. Meets the Maryland Nonprofits' Director's and Officer's Insurance Program annual requirement for risk management training.

Streamlining Your Marketing Through Content Strategy
Greg Kihlstrom, Carousel30
Websites, email marketing, social media, press releases, PSAs, and direct mail are just a few of the many ways that nonprofits communicate with their audiences. Yet many nonprofits have challenges keeping up with all the different communication channels and tactics that are critical to the organization. How can you reduce staff time and increase effectiveness of communications? This training session will help you develop a unified strategy around which all content is created, managed, and shared with an organization's target audiences (members, beneficiaries, supporters, media, and the general public). This content might consist of written communications, photos and other media, as well as conversations on social media communication channels. Participants will leave the session with a clear set of steps to create an effective content strategy for their organization that is flexible enough for all types and sizes of nonprofits. This session is appropriate for nonprofit staff, volunteers or board members who manage marketing.
