The CT Community Non-profit Alliance will host this free half-day forum to focus on approaching legacy giving and managing raised funds

A free development forum created by the CT Community Non-profit Alliance (The Alliance) for Connecticut non-profit organizations will be held November 7th titled “Non-Profit Nest Eggs: Hatching Great Ideas.”

The half-day forum will focus on how non-profit organizations approach their legacy giving and the critical element of how they manage raised funds. The event will be held at The Alliance offices at 35 Cold Spring Road, Building 5, Floor 2, in Rocky Hill.

“Non-profits face significant fiscal challenges and this forum will help them look at one way to remain financially healthy. In a world of changing rules and regulations it’s always helpful to be reminded of ways to follow the latest financial management guidelines,” stated The Alliance President & CEO Gian-Carl Casa.
