2016 Montana Nonprofit Association

Have you been to the Montana Nonprofit Association (MNA) Conference before? If so, you know it’s a conference with over 400 of Montana’s Nonprofit leaders in one place. Talk about networking possibilities galore!

This year the conference is in Helena at the Raddison Colonial Hotel from 9/27-9/29. You can click here for more info about the conference.

As you already know, the things we can learn from our peers in the same filed are many. I encourage you to reach out and meet at least 3 new leaders this week at the event. And if you’re not coming to the event I encourage you to reach out and set up meetings with peers in your community.

I find that many organizations are happy to share how they found funding for specific projects or events. Don’t be afraid to ask!

If you want to learn more about fundraising and grants while you are at the event, make sure to stop by the “Ask An Expert” booth on Wednesday and Thursday mornings from 10-10:30. Both Shelby (she’s my awesome new team member!) and I will be there to answer your most difficult fundraising questions.

I’ll also be presenting with Tammy Tilzey from GrantHub on the best practices for organizing your grant deadlines on Thursday 9/29 at 8:30am.

If you are at the event, I hope you’ll say hello!!

Cheers,

Breanna
