Non-profit funding comes in several different ways. They receive some funding from grants, donations and also fundraising. Animal Shelters will typically hire a person to be in charge of fundraising, but that doesn't mean they won't need your help!
If you have experience with fundraising, you understand the challenges of organizing and promoting events. If you don't have insider experience, talk about some fundraisers in which you have participated. Your volunteer experience is valuable! Share any helpful tools you've learned from marketing events as well as any lessons you learned from your experience.
