Nonprofit REMIX

A pop-up PR workshop for nonprofit communication professionals

Whether you’re a CEO of a local nonprofit or a PR professional navigating outreach to donors, planning your first fundraiser or tasked with “getting the media” to pay attention to your organization, NONPROFIT REMIX is for YOU!

From reaping low-hanging social media fruit (while avoiding "poison apples") to how to make your next event the community’s hottest “go to,” we’re bringing together award-winning, seasoned PR experts who understand the unique communication needs of nonprofit organizations.

Join us for this fast-moving, results-driven workshop; sign up early for your top breakout session picks, as seating is limited. After lunch and networking, you’ll rotate from one breakout session to the next, completing three 20-minute, rapid-fire sessions in this dynamic professional development program with special nonprofit pricing of $25 for WMPRSA members and $35 for nonmembers.
