Grand Rapids, MI -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/14/2010 -- Ask the officials of any organization that typically depends on donations for its growth and support how the current recession is affecting daily operations and you will likely be told times are hard.

Thanks to a workshop from Charitable Concepts, LLC that is specifically for charities, the immediate future looks brighter.

Dennis Tubbergen, top financial advisor and CEO of Charitable Concepts, LLC and his staff members have hosted top executives from non-profits across the United States to coach them on how to improve their fundraising skills during the current dismal economic times.

The “Increasing Charitable Contributions in the Current Economy Workshop” is held monthly in Tubbergen’s downtown Grand Rapids, MI offices in the Trade Center building. The strategy-building sessions are particularly powerful tools for a non-profit organization’s leaders and decision-makers. The two-day workshop events will be held in Grand Rapids on June 21st and 22nd and July 19th and 20th.

Would-be attendees are pre-qualified for the events to ensure the workshops will truly be helpful for a given charitable organization and its donors. Dennis Tubbergen offers complementary DVDs with additional information for those hoping to be selected for attendance at his workshops.

“Charities need new tools and creative ways to approach donors now,” concludes Tubbergen.
