===Calendar (Schedule what you'd like to teach)===
Join the World University and School Google Group to add to its wiki-like calendar to teach an open, free class or course, converse about ideas, and jam (e.g. musically or theater improvisation): http://groups.google.com/group/World-University-and-School.
===Ideas===
1) Fundraising at its best is grounded in nurturing and building a 3-way partnership between: a) the Donor; b) the Non-Profit Organization or School; c) The Non-Profit's Mission and Purpose.
2) Our most successful non-profits and schools "work from their core strengths" - a concept that "permeates the organizational culture" and is reflected in how we approach our work and mission.
3) Virtually all successful fundraising programs recognize that a relatively small percen tof donors will account for a high percent of dollars raised.
4) Fundraising is a process designed to nurture and support an organization's mission and work. It is not about meeting goals and "raising money".
5) With few exceptions, the success of a fundraising program is highly correlated with strong support from those closest to the organization - namely board members, staff, and senior leadership.
6) The most successful fundraising programs are based on an "Inverted Pyramid Model" that guides: a) the focus of development activity; and b) the allocation of time and resources.
7) The most successful fundraising programs are ground in the concept of a growing and sustainable partnership between the organization and donor.
8) Successful fundraising programs are, with few exceptions, grounded in a comprehensive development model with a carefully targeted set of program areas designed to meet both short and long-term organizational needs.
9) The most successful fundraisers share one common trait. They possess a "unique gift" for uncovering and connecting with a donor's transformational story.
