PAGE 2 GUEST EXPERT: Kay Sprinkel Grace, CFRE, is a San Francisco-based organizational consultant, providing workshops and consultation to local, regional, national and international organizations in strategic development planning, case and board development, staff development, and other issues related to leadership of the fundraising process. Description: "What We Give When We Ask" Most of us are askers: whether asking for philanthropic gifts or asking people to contract for our services or to become a volunteer -- we are constantly asking. When asking becomes difficult, we often cite "donor fatigue" -- and those who turn us down accuse us of "banging a tin cup" and "begging" for money, time, or produce/service commitment. How can we change this? How, in this season of giving, can we elevate asking to the exceptional practice of engaging others in inspiring vision, shared values and an experience that will enhance their lives. Based in the idea that our work needs to be based in abundance, not scarcity, Kay Sprinkel Grace will bring us her holiday message about the ways in which asking is giving. Kay Sprinkel Grace will explore a new future for philanthropy in her annual program for the Nonprofit Coach with Ted Hart Radio Show.
