The Community Foundation of Greater Lafayette is pleased to build on the success of the Fundraising
trainings hosted in 2025 and offer two courses in 2026. The Foundation has partnered with The Fundraising School at the Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy to bring their world-class fundraising courses to Lafayette. Participants who attend 4 courses will have the opportunity to earn their Certificate in Fundraising Management.

Who is eligible to attend?
Staff within nonprofit organizations that serve the Greater Lafayette area and are looking to enhance and strengthen their fundraising knowledge and skills. Individuals do not have to hold a development or
fundraising title, but fundraising should be a primary responsibility or goal. This opportunity is limited to those organizations that are eligible to apply to our grant cycles. Preference will be given to organizations with 5 or fewer staff dedicated to development efforts. Space is limited.
What is the cost?
Typically, courses through the IU School of Philanthropy cost between $1,295 and $1,695 each! The
Foundation is offering the courses at a drastically reduced rate (see above) in an effort to support nonprofit fundraising efforts in our community.
