WEBINAR
Rohit Mehta – Founder of DoGood Fundraising
The funding landscape for nonprofit organizations is continuously evolving, as are approaches to grant writing and successfully securing funding from foundations, corporations and government. Is your organization keeping up?
In this free webinar, join Rohit Mehta, Founder & Lead Consultant at DoGood Fundraising – a social enterprise dedicated to finding, writing, and training Canadian organizations on grants – to explore new strategies and approaches in grant writing. We will start by discussing the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) and how this new technology can be used as a tool to support your grantseeking. In this session, Rohit will also highlight trust-based philanthropy, and changes that have occurred in grantmaking since the COVID-19 pandemic. This is an opportunity to learn from experts in grant writing, who have worked to successfully raise funds with and for charities and nonprofits of all sizes across Canada.
