Nonprofits Looking for Ideas - Not Plans
If you're a nonprofit in need of an idea and not a plan, we've got you covered. This blog post is the result of one of our workshops. We hope it will help fill the creative gap for your organization by introducing brainstorm techniques that are easy to use, free, and low-pressure.
In this course providing information on brainstorming techniques for nonprofits needing ideas (rather than plans), you'll learn about:
- Brainstorming basics
- How to generate ideas through brainstorms - What to do when all else fails
- How to use one's skills or resources for inspiration or financial support
This course is perfect for anyone interested in developing a brainstorm strategy but does not yet have one.
This workshop will be followed by a hands-on, 1:1 brainstorming session.
Our first Brainstorming Workshop is on September 12 at the Rockbottom Brewery in Norcross, Georgia. This will be followed by a 1:1 brainstorm session for your team. The cost is $35, which includes all materials and lunch. This fee covers one individual's attendance only; additional attendees are charged extra to cover the cost of materials and lunch.
The course is designed for non-profits or other organizations that require ideas. Please contact us if you would like to sponsor this course for the nonprofit of your choice! For more information, visit www.createideasfornonprofits.com .
