Effective fundraising can significantly enhance preservation and conservation programs in libraries, museums, archives, and historic sites. Even in prosperous times our institutional budgets often fall short of meeting collection care needs. How has fundraising for preservation and conservation changed in our current economic environment? The North Carolina Preservation Consortium presents a panel of nationally recognized speakers to share their fundraising success stories and offer advice for establishing and enhancing a comprehensive development program. Join colleagues from across the state for a discussion on annual drives, events, direct mail, capital campaigns, endowments, planned giving, grant writing and other fundraising strategies. Learn how to craft a compelling case statement and a prioritized development plan.
