This one-hour introduction for adults new to individual giving puts individual donations in the context of nonprofit funding and aims toward a practical outcome: a plan to start or improve an annual giving program.
All times are local to the venue · America/Chicago
A plan to start or improve an annual individual-giving program is the clearest end point of this class at J. Erik Jonsson Central Library. For adults new to the subject, the session pairs that goal with an overview of the fundraising landscape and the key components of an individual-giving program.
The class frames individual giving as one part of a sustainable nonprofit’s funding, alongside other sources. Its introductory overview is intended to explain the role individual donors can play, not to suggest that they replace a diversified funding strategy.
The event listing cites Giving USA estimates for 2024: U.S. charities received $592.5 billion from individuals, bequests, foundations and corporations, with individual giving totaling $392.45 billion, or 66 percent. Those national figures establish the scale of the subject; they are not a fundraising target for a particular organization.

The stated learning outcomes move from understanding individual giving’s role in nonprofit fundraising to identifying steps in an individual-giving program and drafting a plan to begin or improve annual giving. That makes the class most directly relevant to people or organizations looking for a starting framework.
The listing describes an overview of the fundraising landscape and the key components of a giving program. It does not lay out a detailed lesson sequence, so the clearest way to assess the session is by its published outcomes rather than an assumed syllabus.
