Nonprofit Annual Reports 101

By: Susan Iskiwitch | 04/07/2008

Cathy isn't the only Standing team member who participates in speaking engagements (although she definitely dominates the speaking scene). Tomorrow, April 8, Standing's resident southern belle and Senior Counselor Mistie Thompson will participate in the Community Service Public Relations Council's panel on "Gauging the Effectiveness of Your Annual Report/Newsletters."

To be held at the Sheraton Clayton Plaza, the panel, composed of Mistie; Mary Lewis, resource development director for the School Sisters of Notre Dame; Mallory Rusch, associate development director for the Center for Women in Transition; and Laura Jones, vice president of Messenger Printing, will explore such issues as:

Is your annual report or newsletter effective enough?

What's its true "value" to your organization?

Can you meet the budget and also meet the needs of donors, board and staff?

How can you ensure you are getting enough bang for your buck?

Keep an eye on Where Do You Stand for Mistie's wrap up of the panel in the next few days.
