There is no wait li st for this event. This series will be offered again in early 2027\; check back on our Events Calendar soon to register. \n\n\n\n\nMany nonprofit le aders know they need to diversify funding\, but major donor fundraising ca n feel out of reach\, especially in small- to mid-size nonprofits without large development teams. The good news is that your next major donor is li kely already connected to your organization or within your existing networ k. The key is knowing where to look\, how to build the relationship\, and how to confidently invite deeper investment in your mission. \n\n\n\nIn th is 3-session virtual series\, we will help you build the confidence\, clar ity\, and practical systems needed to identify\, cultivate\, and engage ma jor donors in ways that feel genuine\, strategic\, and aligned with your m ission. \n\n\n\nAcross three live online sessions\, we will reframe fundra ising as relationship-building\, map the people already surrounding your m ission\, prioritize the right donor prospects\, and strengthen your abilit y to lead donor conversations with greater clarity and confidence. Through practical tools\, guided exercises\, and real-time application\, this ser ies is designed to help you move from uncertainty and overwhelm to a more focused\, strategic\, and repeatable approach to major donor fundraising. \n\n\n\nYou will leave with practical frameworks and tools you can use imm ediately to strengthen donor relationships\, build a more intentional dono r portfolio\, and create momentum toward long-term fundraising sustainabil ity. Past participants have shared that this course increased their confid ence\, strengthened their donor conversations\, and gave them practical to ols they could apply right away. \n\n\n\nBy the end of this 3-session ser ies\, you will be able to:  \n\n\n\n\nReframe major donor fundraising as an opportunity to build meaningful donor partnerships rather than simply a sk for money. \n\n\n\nIdentify potential major donors\, connectors\, and advisors already within your organization’s existing network. \n\n\n\n Prioritize the right donor prospects based on alignment\, engagement\, rea diness\, and funding goals. \n\n\n\nDevelop tailored engagement strategie s that deepen trust and move donor relationships forward. \n\n\n\nLead do nor conversations with greater clarity\, confidence\, and purpose. \n\n\n \nUse practical tools and frameworks to build a more structured\, strategi c\, and repeatable major donor process that supports more diversified fund ing.\n\n\n\n\nWatch a video about the Major Donor Coaching Cohort Experien ce here. \n\n\n\nSession Details\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nSession 1: Mindset and Cultivate Mapping – September 15 @ 9:30am – 11:00am CT \nIn this ses sion\, we begin by exploring the psychology of generosity and dismantling the “begging” narrative that often creates fear or hesitation around f undraising. Together\, we will shift the mindset from asking for money to inviting partnership in meaningful work. \n\n\n\nWe will then map 30–50 relationship pathways within your existing network to help you identify th e hidden donor potential already surrounding your mission\, including supp orters\, connectors\, and advisors. \n\n\n\nBy the end of Session 1\, you will be able to:  \n\n\n\n\nReframe fundraising as an invitation to partn ership rather than a transactional ask.\n\n\n\nDescribe how generosity\, s hared purpose\, and donor motivation can shape stronger fundraising conver sations.\n\n\n\nIdentify supporters\, connectors\, and advisors already wi thin your organization’s network.\n\n\n\nCreate a Cultivate Map of 30– 50 relationship pathways connected to your mission.\n\n\n\nRecognize where major donor potential may already exist within your current community and relationships. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSession 2: Building the Right Portfolio – September 29 @ 9:30am – 11:00am CT \nIn this session\, we will help you move from a broad or cluttered database to a prioritized portfolio of qualified donor prospects. Using the Engagement Scorecard and related too ls\, we will evaluate prospects based on engagement\, alignment\, influenc e\, readiness\, and relationship strength. \n\n\n\nYou will begin building a focused Power 10 Portfolio and develop customized engagement designs th at help move priority donors from contact to committed partner. \n\n\n\nBy the end of Session 2\, you will be able to:  \n\n\n\n\nEvaluate donor pr ospects using practical criteria such as alignment\, engagement\, influenc e\, and readiness. \n\n\n\nDistinguish between a broad contact list and a focused donor portfolio built for meaningful cultivation. \n\n\n\nPriori tize a Power 10 Portfolio based on real funding goals and relationship pot ential. \n\n\n\nDevelop customized engagement designs for your top prospe cts. \n\n\n\nBuild a more strategic and repeatable process for major dono r cultivation over time. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSession 3: Designing Confident C onversations – October 13 @ 9:30am – 11:00am CT \nIn this session\, w e will build the messaging and structure you need to lead donor conversati ons with greater clarity and confidence. Building on the work from the fir st two sessions\, we will help you define impact\, communicate need\, and make the ask in a way that feels grounded\, relational\, and clear. \n\n\n \nWe will also strengthen your approach to stewardship so donors become mo re than a source of funding. They become meaningful partners in your missi on. \n\n\n\nBy the end of Session 3\, you will be able to:   \n\n\n\n\nU se a clear framework to structure major donor conversations with greater c onfidence.\n\n\n\nCommunicate shared values\, need\, impact\, and invitati on in a compelling and mission-centered way.\n\n\n\nPrepare for donor asks with messaging that feels clear\, relational\, and strategic.\n\n\n\nAppr oach the ask as a natural part of relationship-building rather than a disc onnected fundraising task.\n\n\n\nStrengthen stewardship and next-step pla nning to support long-term donor partnership.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOptional Impl ementation Labs: From Strategy to Action – September 22\, October 6\, & October 20 @ 9:30am – 10:30am CT\nThese optional one-hour working sess ions are designed to help you move from theory to execution without the o verwhelm. Through peer discussion\, hands-on application\, and focused gro up coaching\, we will bridge the gap between “knowing” and “doing. ”  \n\n\n\nRather than introducing new content\, these sessions give y ou space to apply the course tools directly to your own donor portfolio\, messaging\, outreach strategies\, and upcoming conversations. Together\, w e will troubleshoot challenges\, refine next steps\, and build momentum so you can walk into your next donor meeting with greater clarity\, confiden ce\, and a practical 90-day action plan. \n\n\n\nBy participating in the optional implementation labs\, you will be able to:  \n\n\n\n\nApply cou rse tools and frameworks directly to your own donor relationships and fund raising priorities. \n\n\n\nRefine engagement strategies\, donor messagin g\, and next steps through peer discussion and group coaching. \n\n\n\nSt rengthen your readiness for upcoming donor meetings and conversations. \n \n\n\nBuild a practical 90-day activation plan for cultivation\, asks\, fo llow-up\, and stewardship. \n\n\n\nIncrease your confidence in moving fro m planning to real-world donor action.\n\n\n\n\nThese three Implementation Labs sessions are included with the “Building and Cultivating Major Don ors for Small- to Mid-Size Nonprofits Series” registration. \n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWhat You Will Walk Away With\n\n\n\nBy the end of the series\, you will leave with more than notes.

With more than 20 years of experience in nonprofit leadership and fundraising\, sh e has helped organizations raise over $1 billion to expand mission impact.   \n\n\n\n\nHer work began on the ground in South Africa\, where she foun ded a grassroots nonprofit that served 15\,000 students and mobilized hu ndreds of volunteers. That experience shaped her practical\, relationship -centered approach to fundraising\, leadership\, and organizational growth . None of it started with theory. It started in the trenches.  \n\n\n\n Today\, Ellen is known for making major donor fundraising feel more human\ , strategic\, and accessible to leaders who may not have large developmen t teams or formal fundraising training. She believes that for nonprofits to truly thrive\, their leaders must thrive too\, and she brings both str ategy and heart to helping leaders build joy-filled\, sustainable approach es to fundraising and growth.

That’s why Ursa Minor is a fitting constellation for Minnesot a\, whose state motto is “The Star of the North.” \nFind a star party at host sites across the state: bellmuseum.umn.edu/statewide-star-party-20 26 LAST-MODIFIED:20260914T182124Z LOCATION:Various Locations\, Various Locations URL:https://www.minnesotaparent.com/event/statewide-star-party-2026/?utm_s ource=caldiscovery&utm_medium=ics&utm_campaign=minneapolis-mn X-SOURCE-NAME:Minnesota Parent X-SOURCE-URL:https://www.minnesotaparent.com/things-to-do-calendar END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Excelsior Apple Days DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260918 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260921 DTSTAMP:20260729T181928Z UID:3345@familyfuntwincities.com CATEGORIES:arts,dance,family,festival,food,music DESCRIPTION:At Excelsior's Apple Days fall festival\, kids can get creativ e in the Kids Art Tent.

Afterwards\, we tidy up\, and everything  is usually finished by 1:00pm. \nOther Notes for Vol unteers\n\nPlease dress comfortably\, with closed-toe shoes.\nWe expect to serve about 30 residents.\nThis is a community service event\; while we w ould explain more about CAA’s work and veganism if residents ask\, it is not an outreach event.\nIf you have any questions\, please email Nicola a t nicola.philpott@exploreveg.org or CAA staff at info@exploreveg.org.\n\n Other Ways to Support the Program\nYou can also donate to support this ini tiative financially! Go to: https://www.givemn.org/story/6lr05f to donate and help support your neighbors who are currently experiencing housing an d financial challenges. \nWe often partner with other environmental organi zations to serve low-carbon plant-based meals\, or partner with community service organizations to prep a meal together. Are you part of a local org anization that may like to connect and collaborate on serving a meal? Plea se email CAA at info@exploreveg.org. \nAppreciations\nThese events are the brain child of Nicola Philpott who typically organizes the events. Thank you\, Nicola!

For two nights\, David Byrne of Talking Heads performed at the Orpheu m Theatre\, while Purple Rain flickered across the street at the State. The sidewalks buzzed with people\, color\, and possibility. In that moment \, the city itself felt like a stage—alive\, collaborative\, and full of creative electricity. What unfolded on the Orpheum stage was more than a concert. It was an artistic feat that was also intellectual\, civic\, and deeply human. Byrne has always had a knack for dreaming a few steps ahead\ , and his performance was a reminder of how creativity\, design\, and comm unity can intersect to create something transcendent. The overriding vibe that night was simple and irresistible: This must be the place. Great dow ntowns generate that feeling. They aren’t defined by one skyscraper or o ne institution. They thrive when safety is foundational\, when residents\, workers\, business owners\, community partners\, and law enforcement shar e a vision of belonging. They succeed when systems—transportation\, publ ic space\, culture—are designed around people\, not the other way around . And most of all\, they flourish when movement\, purpose\, and collaborat ion flow together. Downtown Minneapolis is at its best when it operates li ke that stage—dynamic\, adaptive\, intentionally designed to bring peopl e together. A vibrant downtown invites us into a system where creativity\, culture\, and community reinforce each other\, where good energy multipli es\, and where people leave feeling inspired and connected. We often hear the question: Is downtown back? But the more useful question is: What a re we building it to be? Real optimism isn’t pretending every challenge is solved. It’s being clear‑eyed about what needs work while being co nfident in our capacity to shape what comes next. And what comes next is a lready taking shape. Downtown Minneapolis today is a place where people li ve in walkable neighborhoods close to parks\, bike trails\, transit\, and hundreds of thousands of jobs. It’s where ambassadors greet visitors wit h help and a smile. It’s where more than 100\,000 people can gather for major events—Taste of Minnesota\, block parties on First Avenue\, commun ity celebrations that make the city feel like one big living room. It’s a place where you can take in world‑class theater\, orchestra performanc es\, live music\, and comedy shows. Where you can grab a cocktail at an i ce bar\, watch a fashion show\, or—because this is Minnesota—even on a rooftop in January. It’s where entrepreneurs launch companies\, attract talent\, and drive results. It’s where chefs experiment\, restaurants p ush boundaries\, and creativity becomes an economic engine. It’s where f ans howl for the Wolves\, cheer on the Lynx\, Skol for the Vikings\, or ro ot for the Twins on a perfect summer night. And it’s a place with unmatc hed natural assets—miles of riverfront access that anchor the city in be auty and movement. In other words\, downtown Minneapolis is already a plac e where the pieces of a vibrant future exist. The task now is to continue designing systems that connect those pieces—to build the infrastructure of community as deliberately as we build the infrastructure of streets and buildings. When people feel welcomed\, inspired\, and fulfilled by their time downtown\, they come back. And when they come back\, the city grows s tronger. “This must be the place” isn’t just a lyric. It’s a direc tive. It’s a challenge to imagine what’s possible when culture leads\, when collaboration is intentional\, and when we treat community as the en gine of our shared prosperity. It’s a reminder that our best days aren ’t behind us—they are in front of us\, shaped by the people who choose to gather\, create\, build\, and dream here.  This is the place. This is home. This is our downtown Minneapolis.

In a m oment of reckless vanity\, shaped by Basil’s adoration and Henry’s int oxicating philosophy\, Dorian sells his soul. He bargains for eternal yout h\, not knowing that every cruelty and every indulgence will splatter his own painted portrait with darkness and corruption.  \nIn this visceral ne w staging of Oscar Wilde’s famous novel\, the pursuit of beauty becomes a brutal act of creation. Set in a stark world of white walls and clean li nes\, this adaptation strips the story to its rawest elements\, using live action painting to chart Dorian’s moral descent. With each choice\, eac h sin\, the pristine world is defaced\, layered with thick\, chaotic strok es of paint that reflect the corruption he hides within.  \nAs Dorian re mains untouched\, the world around him bears the weight of his decay. Wil de’s decadent language collides with explosive physicality in a producti on that’s as much a living canvas as a play—a bold meditation on art \, desire\, corruption\, and destruction.  \nBeauty fades. But the mess w e leave behind endures.\ntrademarktheater.org\n \n  \nFree Parking in our lot. See map HERE.

For two nights\, David Byrne of Talking Heads performed at the Orpheu m Theatre\, while Purple Rain flickered across the street at the State. The sidewalks buzzed with people\, color\, and possibility. In that moment \, the city itself felt like a stage—alive\, collaborative\, and full of creative electricity. What unfolded on the Orpheum stage was more than a concert. It was an artistic feat that was also intellectual\, civic\, and deeply human. Byrne has always had a knack for dreaming a few steps ahead\ , and his performance was a reminder of how creativity\, design\, and comm unity can intersect to create something transcendent. The overriding vibe that night was simple and irresistible: This must be the place. Great dow ntowns generate that feeling. They aren’t defined by one skyscraper or o ne institution. They thrive when safety is foundational\, when residents\, workers\, business owners\, community partners\, and law enforcement shar e a vision of belonging. They succeed when systems—transportation\, publ ic space\, culture—are designed around people\, not the other way around . And most of all\, they flourish when movement\, purpose\, and collaborat ion flow together. Downtown Minneapolis is at its best when it operates li ke that stage—dynamic\, adaptive\, intentionally designed to bring peopl e together. A vibrant downtown invites us into a system where creativity\, culture\, and community reinforce each other\, where good energy multipli es\, and where people leave feeling inspired and connected. We often hear the question: Is downtown back? But the more useful question is: What a re we building it to be? Real optimism isn’t pretending every challenge is solved. It’s being clear‑eyed about what needs work while being co nfident in our capacity to shape what comes next. And what comes next is a lready taking shape. Downtown Minneapolis today is a place where people li ve in walkable neighborhoods close to parks\, bike trails\, transit\, and hundreds of thousands of jobs. It’s where ambassadors greet visitors wit h help and a smile. It’s where more than 100\,000 people can gather for major events—Taste of Minnesota\, block parties on First Avenue\, commun ity celebrations that make the city feel like one big living room. It’s a place where you can take in world‑class theater\, orchestra performanc es\, live music\, and comedy shows. Where you can grab a cocktail at an i ce bar\, watch a fashion show\, or—because this is Minnesota—even on a rooftop in January. It’s where entrepreneurs launch companies\, attract talent\, and drive results. It’s where chefs experiment\, restaurants p ush boundaries\, and creativity becomes an economic engine. It’s where f ans howl for the Wolves\, cheer on the Lynx\, Skol for the Vikings\, or ro ot for the Twins on a perfect summer night. And it’s a place with unmatc hed natural assets—miles of riverfront access that anchor the city in be auty and movement. In other words\, downtown Minneapolis is already a plac e where the pieces of a vibrant future exist. The task now is to continue designing systems that connect those pieces—to build the infrastructure of community as deliberately as we build the infrastructure of streets and buildings. When people feel welcomed\, inspired\, and fulfilled by their time downtown\, they come back. And when they come back\, the city grows s tronger. “This must be the place” isn’t just a lyric. It’s a direc tive. It’s a challenge to imagine what’s possible when culture leads\, when collaboration is intentional\, and when we treat community as the en gine of our shared prosperity. It’s a reminder that our best days aren ’t behind us—they are in front of us\, shaped by the people who choose to gather\, create\, build\, and dream here.  This is the place. This is home. This is our downtown Minneapolis.

When people feel welcomed\, inspired\, and fulfilled by their time downtown\, they come back. And when they come back\, the city grows s tronger. “This must be the place” isn’t just a lyric. It’s a direc tive. It’s a challenge to imagine what’s possible when culture leads\, when collaboration is intentional\, and when we treat community as the en gine of our shared prosperity. It’s a reminder that our best days aren ’t behind us—they are in front of us\, shaped by the people who choose to gather\, create\, build\, and dream here.  This is the place. This is home. This is our downtown Minneapolis.
