PowerPoint slides from consultant Keith Hopkins' professional development session presented during the NorthSky 2010 Break for Lunch series. The session was focused on increasing donations from major gifts.
NorthSky was engaged to work with the Recreational Authority and also structure the memo of understanding for the nonprofits occupying publicly owned park land. “This was a unique partnership,” notes Benjamin Marentette, the Authority’s executive director and deputy city clerk. “NorthSky’s Debbie McKeon brokered the arrangement, brought the three nonprofits together, and facilitated a dynamic and respectful framework that gave everyone an equal voice.”
