Upcoming Roundtables

Peer Roundtables are regular meetings designed to encourage peer learning, foster peer support, and support community building amongst members of the East Bay nonprofit community.

Roundtables are structured informally as an alternative to workshops. Content is based on input from attendees, not on set curriculum. The format is conversational and ideas, comments, and questions are encouraged. Please see our calendar of events for a complete listing of all our programs, including roundtables.

Enough already about how tough 2009 was for fundraising. Let's take a look at the upside of the recession's downside.  This roundtable is all about: how you've made positive changes to your fundraising efforts this past year, the new opportunities you've pursued because of the recession, improvements you've made in donor communications, and a sharing of success stories to launch 2010.
