Description:
Every organization has a money story – but few leaders are sharing it in a way that inspires generosity and fuels growth. The most powerful fundraising question isn't “how much do we need?” It’s “What becomes possible when we raise more?”
In this high-impact session, master storyteller and fundraising culture change expert Lori L. Jacobwith will show you how to turn conversations about money into one of your strongest fundraising strategies. You’ll learn how to confidently and consistently weave your money story into mission-driven messaging that motivates donors, board members, and your entire community to take action.
Through real examples and Lori’s proven “mission moment” approach, you’ll discover how to talk about money in a way that feels authentic, energizing, and deeply connected to your impact.
You’ll learn how to:
- clearly articulate your organization’s money story – and why it's essential to sustainable fundraising success;
- move beyond scarcity thinking and the toxic myths that quietly undermine donor confidence;
- talk about money in ways that speak to both the head and heart, inspiring increased giving; and,
- integrate your money story into appeals, campaigns, presentations, board meetings, and everyday conversations.
This webinar will help you replace hesitation with confidence. You’ll leave ready to communicate about money with clarity, power, and purpose so your fundraising can truly reflect the boldness of your mission.
Who should attend:
Executive directors, Development Directors, all fundraising and communication staff, and board members who want to elevate their messaging, strengthen donor engagement, and raise more money by telling the right story.

- slides and handouts; and,
