W.I.N. (What Interests Nonprofits)
lunches are a series of quarterly brown bag lunches,
offered free to the nonprofit community. Beverages and
dessert will be provided. Each lunch addresses a topic,
usually with a panel or presenter, that the nonprofit
groups we work with tell us they want to learn more
about.
Topics include board recruitment, event planning, corporate
sponsorships and fund raising.
