Chelsea Price discusses common myths about asking for money, the importance of relationships, grant-writing tips, and fundraising ideas.

So how can you write a grant proposal that will have a foundation throwing money at your library? What are some great fundraising ideas that haven’t been done a thousand times before? And what is the secret to asking people for money without seeming pushy or greedy?
Join Chelsea Price to discuss all these things and more. Chelsea will delve into some common myths about asking for money, the importance of the library/city relationship, grant-writing tips, and some out-of-the-box fundraising ideas from her library and others.
