About the Course
You've sent the reminders. You've had the conversations. And your board still isn't fundraising the way your mission needs them to. Here's the truth: this isn't a "bad board" problem. It's a systems and culture problem, and it's fixable. Hannah Berger has spent 20+ years on both sides of the boardroom table, as a nonprofit executive and a longtime board member herself. She's helped organizations move board members from silent and hesitant to genuinely engaged, and she's distilled exactly how in this course. You'll learn why fundraising engagement isn't optional for good governance, and why it isn't about wealth or connections; it's about clarity, practice, and partnership. Hannah walks through the three most common reasons boards go quiet on fundraising, and gives you real, practical ways to turn each one around, whether that's building trust before you ever ask for an introduction, or making solicitation feel like teamwork instead of a solo performance. You'll walk away with a mini action plan tailored to your board, plus tools you can bring straight into your next board meeting.
