Seminar Presenter Description-
Beyond the Bake Sale Susan Liebeler Beyond The Bake Sale How to Raise Money for Your Chapter, not from Your Chapter Do you ever wonder why some Chapters are able to fund local scholarships, an AE Perpetual Scholarship, and donate to our Building Fund and Endowment Fund? Why their membership is growing, but yours isn't? Come listen to Susan Liebeler's presentation on ways to grow your funds and your membership. Learn how to use your members to increase your fund-raising instead of hitting them up for money, all the while meeting the goals of The 99s Mission Statement. Susan is the International 99s Fund-raising Chairman and serves the same function for her Chapter, the Ventura County 99s, and the Southwest Section. She will discuss techniques and practical tips on how your Chapter can raise money from outside sources, with emphasis on conserving volunteer resources and using them effectively.
