Workshops designed to strengthen nonprofits

The Muskingum County Community Foundation is accepting registrations for its first ever Nonprofit Central Series, a program of workshops to offer professional learning and support designed to strengthen the missions of local nonprofit organizations.

“Muskingum County Community Foundation has a mission of improving the quality of life in our community by nurturing opportunities and serving needs through collaboration and philanthropy,” said Amy Luby, MCCF’s resource development Officer. “One of the ways we strive to meet this mission is through our support of Muskingum County’s nonprofit organizations. In this spirit, we are excited to announce a four-part workshop series developed specifically for nonprofits.”

The four sessions offered through the fall and winter are “Board Development” on Sept. 29, “Fundraising” on Oct. 20, “Measuring Success” on Nov. 17, and “Getting the Grant” on Jan. 19. The sessions are three hours, beginning at 10 a.m. Lunch is provided. Participants must be a board member or a staff member of a Muskingum County nonprofit organization.

“This has been a year in the making and we’re excited to support our nonprofits in Muskingum County in this way,” Luby added. “Nonprofit organizations help drive economic growth and foster civic engagement vital to healthy communities.”

Registration is open and seating is limited. The deadline to register for the first session is Monday. To register, visit mccf.org. For questions or concerns, contact Resource Development Officer Amy Luby at aluby@mccf.org or phone 740-453-5192.
