Fundraising and Nonprofit Team Building Blocks

By Duke Haddad, Ed.D. and Bernard Ross

As you build your fundraising team, view fundraising as a community effort. Make sure each staff member has the education, experience and ability, as well as the desire, to be trained in new roles based on the organization’s changing focus. It is also imperative that staffers understand the pyramid of giving and how the elements of annual gifts, major gifts, planned gifts and development services relate to each other.
