SWIF community foundation and education foundation partners are invited to join the SWIF Giving Team and fellow advisory board members for a hands-on workshop to learn tips and tricks to writing an engaging year-end fundraising letter for your foundation. We'll help craft and edit your letter so that it's ready to send to your donors. After the workshop, we'll visit a project that was supported by local community foundation grant dollars. We'll end our time together with an optional networking social.
