Old Saybrook, CT – The Southeastern Connecticut chapter of SCORE, a nonprofit association dedicated to the success of small businesses, will present a free Small Business Workshop on "Managing Your Non-Profit Business."
 
Now that you have formed your non-profit, registered it with federal and state authorities and are beginning operations, managing the enterprise is your next challenge.
This workshop will show you how to work with volunteers and lead the organization, plan events and programs, work with a Board of Directors, and develop community partners. It will demonstrate ways to fundraise for your non-profit organization, show you how to create a marketing plan, and explain accounting and periodic reporting.
