I've watched several TEDx talks on how to raise money, and Kara is far and away the most memorable, most polished and most watchable.

Love to Listen again and again. Leaving this comment here.When I come back I remember this❤

This is possibly one of the best ted talks I’ve listened too!

I love her natural humors and how confident she is! You’re one of a kind, Kara! I’m so impressed 💜

Fantastic presentation Kara. A lot of nuggets in here to take away but my favourite was "Fundraising is relational, not transactional"

I loved your message. I fundraiser for a small disc golf tournament where the money goes to a local Parkinson’s support group. It has always been easy for me to ask, and always hard to find the right people to ask. I appreciate your thoughts, wisdom and time in preparing this presentation.

I’ve watched this video a few times Kara is inspirational!

“Giving people the opportunity to invest in something that will change the world.” I like that so much more than “Trying to get people to give me money for my cause.” I think this will be a crucial shift in perspective for me.

Amazing! Never have I ever stopped a TedX video to begin taking notes like I did just now. I truly believe I can implement some of her advice and become a better development officer. Thank you!

This is a super speech!!

Absolutely love how and what Kara presented here! We are delighted to have her to connect with our members on 16 Feb 😍

Excellent! I've been in fundraising for over 30 years. I practice and believe in all these ideas that Kara present here.

I intended to skip the vedio because I watched so many clips of the same subject.But this,is kara! Absolutely amazing and unique. Worth watching!

That was world-class. As someone who worked closely with companies that now need to raise their next round this is highly useful.

She's a natural... a great, hilarious speaker!

The sense of being part of the change with support and resources....

What a great teacher. She inspires me and gives me confidence

Inspiring now I feel like I can sell $20 boxes of Krispy Kreme’s for my daughters wrestling team. We have sold 8 so far but need to sell at least 20!! Wish me luck!! I’m looking to sell 100 boxes in two days. Pray for me! I need it!

This is gold and she is amazing!

So clear and clean wow refreshing

Thank you for such an excellent presentation. Fundraising should be a passion.

Probably my most favourite talk yet! Who has more videos of Kara?

MY DREAM IS TO CHANGE THE WORLD BY REACHIG OUT TO PEOPLE WITH THE SKILLS. THIS IS SO GOOD CONTENT FOR ME

Excellent. Well presented and spot on

Kara simply genius!

This is a great TED talk, thank you for sharing

non profit raising money i love it...wow

00:00:00 Kara Logan discusses how feelings about wealth and money can affect how people approach fundraising. She advises people to grow up poor, rich, or mad/envious and to remember that money is just a fact of life. She also suggests that people approach fundraising in the same way they would approach asking for money for important causes, without any hesitation or embarrassment. 00:05:00 Kara Logan discusses how to be a better fundraiser by reframing the ask as an opportunity, getting prepared to build relationships, and asking questions that reflect what the donor cares about. Logan emphasizes the importance of listening more than talking, and advises not getting too deep into the weeds in order to maintain a connection with the donor. 00:10:00 The speaker discusses how to be a better fundraiser, and offers advice on how to ask for money from donors. She emphasizes the importance of being genuine and authentic, and advises not to try to be someone you're not. She also advises against using tricks or gimmicks to ask for money, and recommends waiting until the donor's ten-count before speaking again. 00:15:00 The speaker discusses the importance of being committed to the art of funding work, and how it is essential to have a true belief in the purpose and privilege of one's work. She reminds the audience that this opportunity exists, and urges them to be committed to it as well. (This is my second time trying to raise funds. I live in Pakistan, and seeing kids around 8 and 9 working tough jobs really breaks my heart. With the first try, one kid is now going to school, and within 4 months, he has learned so much. More to go soon! Any contribution is welcome. 🌸)

Awesome lecture, I’m glad I found this

She did dat! Awesome and insightful 😁

I needed this today. Thank you.

This was very easy to understand . I was able to grasp the building blocks necessary for starting strong and finishing stronger. Definitely top tier advice

She said, we have to be as. Committed to the art of funding or work as we are to executing our work. Ponder that!

This is awesome. It has really encouraged me.

This TEDx talk really hits the point.

So perfect to prep our Board during their annual retreat!

This was fantastic. Thank you.

God bless you and thank U for sharing your knowledge 🙏

I would absolutely love to spend moretime working with local children in my area and develop my soccer outreach program as I can see the enormous benefit it has but I am not sure how I could afford to do so, any advice or feedback would be greatly appreciated. Huzo from uganda.

Brilliant

This was horrific. 6:53 was an ambush. I’m not rich, I’m actually struggling, but as I live in a third world country in a poverty stricken area and am obviously foreign, most of the people I run into day to day consider me rich. If someone started firing all those questions at me I’d run a mile. If anyone asks where I live I always lie. I get particularly nervous about my daughter’s school. I don’t want her kidnapped. Making those assumptions is atrocious. You don’t know they’re not up to their eyeballs in debt and are only still living there because the house won’t sell and they’ve taken in a lodger too make ends meet. And then she says she gets payed to teach nerds to talk to people “like they’re people”. There’s more than one way to go about alienating and dehumanizing someone. I literally skip meals on a regular when I’ve no food in and I haven’t got the energy to face the beggars outside and run the gauntlet to the corner shop. And when I do give, I don’t feel good about it; I feel like I’ve been mugged, and I’ve given out invites for future muggings.

Please guide me how to do a fund raising effectively 🙏 There is not much donation so far 😢

Yes

Awesome, so informative! Does Kara have any contact information? Anybody!

Hope yall didn't miss that... The same way you ask for $100, is the same way you ask for $1 million dollars.

I just want to work in my dream industry, the oil, but i need to complete my bosiet.

good moorning

real change

❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥

I have a plan to startup a preschool in our community. I need foundation startup. Will you help ?

goooodddd

👏🏾

Has anyone heard any bonafide efforts at campaign refurnish which doesn’t double down on capture?

LOL, can I put it into practice by starting a fundraiser here? ... on a serious note I really do need help to pay off a huge debt any help will be greatly appreciated

Does anyone know if i need a specific education if i want to be a fundraiser?

Beyond horizons is a non profit organization in kenya,in my laptop as a proposal. I have watched this and am waiting for someone to ask me for the proposal.

I’ll take small donations from many and the larger community it facilitates (and grosses more $) than focusing on high profile donors, not that they aren’t an important demographic.

If the why is clear then the how should be too.
