I am looking forward to presenting at the 2025 Chesapeake Watershed Forum on. Nov 8th at the National Conservation Training Center in West Virginia. Organized by the Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay, over 400 practitioners gather from across the region to share best practices.
My presentation is called:
From Mission to Message:
Telling Stories that Matter to Supporters
I will be focused on how to craft information into memorable stories that resonate with donors, volunteers, and supporters. Attendees will learn how to choose the content, images, headlines and language that best supports their messages based on their unique audiences.
Environmental nonprofits often unintentionally confuse and intimidate newcomers to the field with environmental jargon.
Do the words below motivate you to get involved in saving the Chesapeake Bay, or discourage you from doing so?
