Fundraising that Works: Lessons from a Nonprofit Turnaround

What does it actually take to move a nonprofit from struggling financially to thriving through fundraising? In this practical, behind-the-scenes session presented by Better Together Nacogdoches, nonprofit consultant Patricia Glass from Flourish Nonprofits and Robert Ogden, Executive Director of The Arc of Greater East Texas will walk us through a real case study from an organization they helped transform—from being in the red to building a stronger, more sustainable development strategy. We’ll explore how to create and use a development plan, what typically comes first, how successful organizations adjust along the way, and the real strategies and decisions that made a difference. Participants will also receive practical templates and tools they can take back to their organizations. Come ready to learn, share ideas, and connect with other local nonprofit leaders. Free and open to all. Please register to attend https://forms.gle/h1VbLGfhYQBFC3KU8 Date: Wednesday, November 4, 2026 Time: 12-2pm Location: CBTX Community Room Cost: FREE
