[Ohio-talk] Cleveland Foundation Center Workshops, from Nov. 19 - Jan. 30.

[Everett Gavel]

Hello,

To try to help us all be better at being the best we 
can be, I'm passing along something I gathered 
recently.  It's the schedule of (mostly free) classes 
given at the Cleveland Foundation Center.  Below is a 
listing of the numerous one-day classes and workshops 
they offer, which can help each of us become better at 
raising funds through grants, and more. Below are the 
upcoming classes for the months of November, December, 
and January.   To find out more, click the links below 
to go to their web site, or call them with questions 
using the number given below. For the chapters and 
members in the Northeast Ohio area especially, I want 
to urge you to set it up so that more than one at a 
time from your chapter can go on the same day to some 
of these workshops.

Strive On!
