Brief Description
In the course Nonprofit Fundraising Campaigns, students launch a campaign, learn how to write grants, and create crowdfunding campaigns. The grants and crowdfunding campaigns students create are for a nonprofit of their choice and feature a project or program they develop for the nonprofit. As grants include a breadth of information relative to an organization, the data Charity Navigator supplies is key. The future of the nonprofit sector relies on engaging young adults to work in this sector. Teaching courses to prepare the next generation of nonprofit professionals is essential if the sector is to grow and continue its impactful work.
