2025 Fall Workshop

UNO Community Engagement Center, Room 116

Omaha, NE 68182

History:

The group was started by a couple of Nebraska Critical Access Hospital fundraisers who wanted to connect with each other and discuss topics that were specific to fundraising for hospitals and fundraising in rural communities.

The fundraising networking group made specifically for you.

It can be an isolating feeling when you don’t have access to resources you need as a rural hospital fundraiser. Join fellow fundraisers and our team of fundraising professionals for networking and training events for honing skills unique to your position:

  • Learn practical tips and strategies specific to rural fundraising.

  • Gain insights from others’ experiences and share your own.

  • Build confidence and knowledge to enhance your fundraising efforts.

  • Expand your professional network and develop a support system to rely on as you navigate complexities of rural hospital fundraising.
