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.
Indeed, I will watch again a few more times. Thanks Kara.
Hands down the most!

I agree!
Love to Listen again and again.
Leaving this comment here.When I come back I remember this❤
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 love her natural humors and how confident she is! You’re one of a kind, Kara! I’m so impressed 💜
No matter what we find army 💜
This is possibly one of the best ted talks I’ve listened too!
e
brilliant sales person!
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!
Fantastic presentation Kara. A lot of nuggets in here to take away but my favourite was "Fundraising is relational, not transactional"
Absolutely love how and what Kara presented here! We are delighted to have her to connect with our members on 16 Feb 😍
I’ve watched this video a few times Kara is inspirational!
What a great teacher. She inspires me and gives me confidence
“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.
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!
Probably my most favourite talk yet! Who has more videos of Kara?
Does anybody have contact info for Kara?
That was world-class. As someone who worked closely with companies that now need to raise their next round this is highly useful.
Excellent! I've been in fundraising for over 30 years. I practice and believe in all these ideas that Kara present here.
Hello Sheila I need your help I want a donation platform that support Iraq because I didn’t find one
Hi Helloooo, I am an African girl who wants to start a foundation that seeks to advocate for the rights of persons with acondroplasia and dwarfism. Can you help me raise funds?
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!

Good presentation.
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. 🌸)
Brilliant 👏

Awesome, so informative! Does Kara have any contact information? Anybody!
Please guide me how to do a fund raising effectively 🙏 There is not much donation so far 😢
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.
I just want to work in my dream industry, the oil, but i need to complete my bosiet.
Highly underrated video!
Yes
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
Hope yall didn't miss that... The same way you ask for $100, is the same way you ask for $1 million dollars.
I am from Morocco. There was an earthquake there and I need food😭😭🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
good moorning
I have a plan to startup a preschool in our community. I need foundation startup. Will you help ?
I am from Morocco. There was an earthquake there and I need food😭😭😭😭😭
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.
Has anyone heard any bonafide efforts at campaign refurnish which doesn’t double down on capture?
❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥
Does anyone know if i need a specific education if i want to be a fundraiser?
I don't believe there is a specific background needed, but I would recommend a Bachelor's in Business, Psychology, or Communications. Being able to communicate, be empathetic, and persuasive are all vital.
@@altlover85 thank u so much! I am graduating soon, so this is a very helpful information.
@@bibianacapuskova3033 Happy to help! While I came to nonprofits/fundraising in a roundabout way (my undergraduate degree is in Art History) if I could do it all again, I would look for a Development Associate job (basically an office assitant for the fundraising office) and see how I liked that work. If you can't find a job in the fundraising office, I'd advise researching companies/nonprofits where you would like to work and getting an entry level job. For example, I started my nonprofit journey doing telefundraising for a ballet company, got hired full time in their box office, and then focused on helping the box office and development departments better understand each other.
Hope this helps!
@@altlover85 wow, it definitely helps, thank u. I'm in a position where i need to plan out my future and decide what actually i am gonna do. One thing i know for sure - i want to help people and to do something meaningful. Just don't know how exactly am i supposed to do that - so every piece of information is precious to me. Recently i was kinda confused and desperate which path to take, which direction to go in my life... so thanks a lot i really appreciate every advise😊
@@bibianacapuskova3033 glad I could be of assistance!
goooodddd
If the why is clear then the how should be too.
If you want to change the world you have to know how to pay for it.
What would you consider!?
