Whether your fiscal year starts on June 1st, or you're mid-way through your fundraising calendar, summer often comes with a pause from frantic fundraising activities and time-intensive events.
Summer is a great time to hit pause and revisit those “important but not urgent” action items on your to-do list, from donor relations to deduping data. It’s your chance to take control of your development plan and make it work for you!
But how do you tackle a to-do list that seems endless?

Finding Time for Rest!
You have a pile of returned mail that’s been taunting you for the last nine months, and you swear the dust bunnies have come to life.
There’s one donor in your database whose name has been misspelled six different ways, and you’re pretty sure there’s also 12 duplicates of JoHn SmiTh but you know you need time to clean up your data accurately!
Your thank you letters and emails are so boring you fall asleep reading the, but you’re not sure how to start with a total rewrite that will make them sing.
Your fundraising systems and to-do’s are on post-it notes, text messages, and 3am ideas.
Until we get organized together!
Your time is precious, so we’ll be laser-focused on getting shit done. Join Catherine, Jess, Sydney, and Sam of the Giant Squid Group team for five days of to-do list bliss. You’ll join Sam’s love of color coded to-do lists, Sydney’s giddiness at finding the best apps and tools to help her get organized, and a whole lot more.
