Spark Point News: Fall Edition!

Fall is such a busy time for fundraisers! We are busy implementing year-end campaigns, getting grant proposals in on time, and working with clients on plans for 2016. Here’s an update on what we’ve been up to.


Spark Point News

  • Weekly Networking: Every Tuesday from 12pm-1pm EST, we participate in a #grantchat on Twitter. It’s a great opportunity to connect with other fundraising professionals, as well as get answers to common problems that we all face. Join us!
