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.

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.

Today\, the band announces their North American tour wit h support from Nuda\, @\, keiyaA\, and Morgan Garrett. See all the tour da tes. \nBased in New York\, YHWH Nailgun have built a reputation on music that is visceral\, immediate\, and impossible to neatly categorize. What b egan in 2020 as the raw collision between vocalist Zack Borzone and drumme r Sam Pickard has since evolved into a full four-piece alongside guitarist /producer Saguiv Rosenstock and synth player Jack Tobias. Their new album ‘Magazine’ further sharpens the band’s uncompromising vision. \nAcro ss 10 tracks that unfold in just 11 minutes\, ‘Magazine’ pushes YHWH N ailgun’s sound into even more skeletal and immediate territory. Opening with the slow fade-in of “Ghost of Love\,” the record feels less like a conventional album than a fragment pulled from an endless transmission. The band balances chaos with precision: frantic guitars\, bruising percuss ion\, air-raid synths\, and Borzone’s now-unmasked vocals\, delivered wi th a newfound clarity that brings his surreal\, religiously charged imager y into sharper focus. \nWhile their acclaimed 2025 debut ‘45 Pounds’ i ntroduced the band’s feral intensity\, Magazine strips away abstraction in favor of something even more direct. Pickard’s drums are leaner\, Ros enstock’s production more exposed\, and Borzone’s lyrics—filled with visions of blood\, serpents\, God\, and the Devil—take center stage. De spite the extremity of their sound\, the band approaches their music with instinct over self-consciousness\, building what they describe as an auton omous creative world unconcerned with trends or reactionary impulses. \nRo oted in improvisation and the pursuit of “quick bursts” of inspiration \, YHWH Nailgun continues to refine a sound that feels both confrontationa l and strangely transcendent—music that resists definition while fully c ommitting to its own singular language. \nLast month\, YHWH Nailgun “pre viewed” ‘Magazine’ at C2C Festival NYC with a performance that saw t he band play the record’s full 11-minute runtime before exiting the stag e. Known for their dynamic and volatile live shows\, the performance gener ated equal parts confusion and excitement. Paste wrote that “those who l oved 45 Pounds will find much to love in what we heard of its follow-up\, expanding into more dynamic territory even as it carried the same blisteri ng\, scorched-earth punch\,” while Stereogum praised the group “as a l ive band\, YHWH are in incredible lockstep with one another\, displaying a certain cacophony and chaos that only comes from immense and seemingly co unterintuitive precision.” \nThe band also performed three new tracks\, “Give Blood\,” “Ballerina\,” and “Hips on a Wheel”\, live on T he Adam Friedland Show last month.
