A Whopping 90% of the People Who Attended This Webinar Rated It As Great to Excellent!
Funders like to fill the community’s unmet needs. This webinar will provide you with a step-by-step guide through the process of evaluating, designing, and growing funding through programs that deliver your mission and bring in funding.
Programs deliver our mission to the community. They drive fundraising, marketing and staffing. They are the reason we exist. Programs should drive funding rather than the other way around.
Join topic expert Zoot Velasco as he helps you design programs worthy of funding. His award-winning programs doubled in budget and scope each year. A single outreach program in 2009 serving 900 grew to 12 programs in 45 sites serving more than 25,000 youth last year with a program budget increasing from $100,000 to $600,000. His organization won the California Superintendent of Education Award for Museum Excellence for the programs he designed.
What you will learn during this nonprofit webinar:
Your Bonus Materials:
A Program Design Worksheet
A Program Funding Resource Sheet (Strategies for Funding)
Three chapters (on Fundraising, Programming and Reporting) from Zoot’s Book “The First 100 Days, Leading Small Non-Profits Out of the Wilderness.”

What Attendees Said about This Webinar:
"Hi Zoot, I attended the webinar you presented and wanted to reach out and say thanks for the helpful, real-world experience and knowledge you shared. As a very small organization in the beginning stages, you presented a lot of helpful ideas for funding and tools that I believe implemented will help our organization grow. You inspired me!"
Thank you!
Tiana Uribe, Founder The Wildflower Initiative, Inc.
“In addition to lots of good information and tips, this webinar provides a simple roadmap on how to fund programs, new and old.”
Heidi Pickman, California Association for Micro Enterprise Opportunity
“Very engaging presenter. He was very good at speaking about the broader issues without being tied directly to his slides. The worst presenters are those who simply read what is already on the slide, but Zoot was able to use the slide as the jumping off point for an intelligent monologue about fundraising.”
John Federico, Ralston Center
“Very thorough and synthesized a complex topic into a concise understandable format.”
Claire Birney, Partnership for the Delaware Estuary
“The webinar was what we needed; it was a straightforward step-by-step guide that covered all the things we need to do, as well as the pieces needed to achieve the whole program design. We included the CEO, Development Director, Exhibit Designer, Grantwriter and Finance person in the group, and each got something from it.”
Linda Pierce, Roger Tory Institute of Natural History
“This webinar explained the program growth process and illustrated it with live examples that helped make the concepts real- very helpful.”
Lorraine Bier, Financial Literacy Coalition
