Project details

What we need
  • A Membership Strategy document of 2-4 pages, including analysis of the Organization’s current membership program, step-by-step guide to a new or improved program, growth goals and creative outreach strategies
Additional details

We need a clear path to revive members and attract new members as well as convert some (on a tiered basis) to paid members as a fundraising strategy.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a membership database, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a membership team, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $5,848 , allowing us to invest in our impact fund and supporting projects for our members

We dont have a solid strategy - we have verbal goals that tend to change and we need a clear strategy for our 2,000 members to help cover expenses.
