If you are a nonprofit partner of Jeffrey Byrne & Associates, or have attended one of our campaign planning workshops around the country, you’ve been introduced to our proprietary Resource Portal. To start the New Year, we want to remind you of the resources available to you through our portal, which you’ll find on our website at www.fundraisingJBA.com.

With the resources we’d compiled over the years through campaign planning guides for nonprofits, our e-newsletter and workshop materials, we decided in early 2005 to develop a tool that our nonprofit partners and others in the nonprofit community can use to gain a better basic understanding of campaigns and campaign planning and for important training tools for their staff and volunteers.

On the Portal, you will find more than 100 helpful, nuts-and-bolts articles from over 36 editions of our e-newsletter – everything from donor prospecting, to motivating your volunteers, to how to write Campaign RFPs, to soliciting major gifts – as well as GivingUSA data, dozens of links to other Internet fundraising resources, guides for when to hire a consultant, what to look for in a consulting firm, and your Criteria for Success in considering a capital, endowment or major gifts campaign.

Our nonprofit partners gain proprietary access to dozens of manuals, worksheets and campaign planning tools.

At Jeffrey Byrne & Associates, we are constantly striving to add new content that is meaningful and will help you be a better fundraiser. Visit us on the web. Use our Resource Portal as your fund development tool. And, give us your feedback. If you don’t see what you’re looking for, contact us and let us know your needs. Chances are, we’ll be able to help you locate a resource that can assist you.
