<font face="Calibri">Dear student service group leaders,<br>
<br>
Welcome back to MIT! I am delighted to invite you and a few of your
fellow group members to attend a special service training on
fundraising, which the PSC has organized in response to an overwhelming
number of student requests for fundraising help. The event will feature
panelists from the Alumni Association, Resource Development, and the
Student Activities Office – all of whom have a strong handle on
strategies for fundraising inside and outside of the MIT community.<br>
<br>
We are asking students to help us make this event as useful as
possible. Panelists will answer questions generated by your groups and
lead breakout sessions designed to help you develop personalized
fundraising plans. The goal is that when you walk out of the room at
the end of the session, you will have a happy and full stomach AND a
good idea of how your service group can meet its fundraising goals. <br>
<br>
