Fundraising for Conservation and Preservation Projects

Many grantors follow an unwritten protocol to determine the best conservation and preservation project applications. Participants in this session will be introduced to this prioritized collection care protocol and its benefits to their fundraising work and their collections. Learn how good fundraisers go beyond 'one-time' grant applications and successfully compete with a strategic development plan.Descriptions and information will also be presented on specific funding sources such as the NEH and IMLS, along with using this approach in fundraising for private, state, and regional applications.

This session was part of the ATALM annual conference held in Temecula, California, on October 25-27, 2022.
