BIG DAY OF GIVING 2019 ORIENTATIONS ARE HERE!
|
|
We have had two great Big Day of Giving 2019 orientations today, but don't worry if you couldn't make it: there are still six more in-person orientations!
This year, we are asking
every organization to attend an orientation
regardless of its past participation.
There's lots of new stuff in store for BDOG2019 (check out the new BDOG User Guide below, for example!), some things we're bringing back, a few surprises, and plenty of new opportunities for you to collaborate with others and learn new skills!

ONLINE ORIENTATION NOW AVAILABLE!
We
highly recommend
that new organizations and new Team Captains attend an in-person orientation. Not only do we want to meet you, but in-person orientations provide the best opportunities for you to meet and begin collaborating with your nonprofit peers! If you are unable to attend an in-person orientation, you can complete the online orientation it in the
BDOG Toolkit
. Remember that the
deadline to complete the online orientation is December 31, 2018
.
