The purpose of this course is to 1) introduce the fundamentals of relationship-based fundraising in the nonprofit sector, and 2) highlight the importance of humanities perspectives to meeting the world's social, economic, political, and environmental opportunities and challenges. Over the course of the semester we will: (1) unpack the concept of relationship-based fundraising through an overview of fundraising techniques, gaining a comprehensive understanding of the ways in which U.S. nonprofits in particular raise funds and why; (2) examine how a humanities-focused approach is invaluable to cultivating donor respect, passion, involvement, and dollars; and (3) survey a range of nonprofit organizations, focusing especially on those that seek to improve the public's quality of life at the local, state, national, and/or global levels.
