How do we begin to talk about money — when what we’re really building is community? Every community, whether new or growing, eventually arrives at the same question: How do we sustain this? Who will support it? Where will the resources come from? This 90 minute interactive workshop offers a hands-on introduction to fundraising for grassroots communities. But more than that, it invites participants to rethink the relationship between money, meaning, and people. We explore how the moment we create a community, we also begin to shape its resource system — one that reflects our values, our relationships, and our long-term vision.
