The Foundation Center is hosting Maria Semple, The Prospect Finder, and me for a free web chat this Thursday the 21st at 2:30 eastern.

What’s in Your Donor Dossier?
The Foundation Center says we’ll talk about the critical pieces of data you should gather on prospective donors. “Our panelists discuss strategies and methods for developing a stellar donor dossier.”

Maria Semple is eminently qualified to answer your research questions. That’s why she’s a monthly contributor to my weekly Tony Martignetti Nonprofit Radio. I like to surround myself with smart people and pick their brains for our listeners.

Which leaves me wondering why I was invited. Maybe for color commentary.

Here’s the place to register and send your questions in advance. As you put together questions for me, imagine pitching wiffle ball to a 4-year-old.

This is a free, live chat and text-only. Should be interesting for two people who meet on my audio podcast.

Actually, I have thoughts on prospect research after 16 years in fundraising. I promise to share what I’ve learned.

Many thanks to The Foundation Center for hosting!

I hope you’ll be with Maria and me on Thursday.
