We're pleased to announce National Development Institute is hosting a nationwide Major Gifts Ramp-Up conference November 6-7, 2024 in Asheville, NC.
Over 19,000 nonprofit executives from across the U.S. have already attended a Major Gifts Ramp-Up Event. THEY LOVE THESE CONFERENCES (and so do their boards!) Why? Because this fast-paced and provocative training has been customized for the audience in attendance. Prepare to hear the truth in ways you've never experienced before. You'll learn from the masters who defied convention and challenged the false thinking that keeps charities broke.
Major Gifts Ramp-Up is a Live In-Person (or Virtual) Financial Capacity-Building Conference that will challenge everything you believe about the raising of money.
National Development Institute is all about building nonprofit capacity! One of the distinct advantages you enjoy as a 501(c)3 organization is your ability to receive financial funding from donors, corporations & foundations who already care about the population you serve. Your mission is important and there are hundreds of thousands of philanthropic dollars available to underwrite the good work you and your team do every day. That’s why you’ll want to REGISTER NOW for an upcoming MAJOR GIFTS RAMP-UP EVENT
“Two words…AMAZING EXPERIENCE. Our Mid-Illinois Major Gifts Ramp-Up Event was provocative and pushed our agency directors to ‘re-imagine’ their roles as CEOs! (I’ve received only positive comments from those who attended.) MGRU Faculty challenged us to see charity through a new lens and then gave us the tools we needed to change. Our own United Way staff were inspired and are now poised for unprecedented campaign success. If you believe in nonprofit capacity-building than this program is for you.”
Debbie Bogle, President & CEO
United Way of Decatur & Mid-Illinois
“Having served nonprofits for the past 40 years, I thought I'd seen everything! Then I attended Major Gifts Ramp-Up New York and experienced MGRU faculty's brilliant performance. Their unbounded enthusiasm, comic timing, exceptional sense of theater and insights into nonprofit management will change the way you view yourself and the raising of big gifts. This conference is a must-see, especially for those who think they’ve seen it all!”
Su Marcy, CEO
United Way of Ulster County
“I’ve spent the last week receiving email messages, phone calls and personal visits thanking me for bringing Major Gifts Ramp-Up to Macon. Our agencies LOVED IT! This spectacular 2-day capacity-building conference was daring, confrontational and exactly what our organizations needed in the way of training. Conventional methods of management and fundraising were challenged with humor and insight. Their expert faculty engaged our grantees and inspired them to grow revenues in new ways that work. Prepare for significant change if you give your community the gift of MGRU. Feel free to call me with your questions!”
