Events are a great way to raise funds, but they require a lot of funding themselves, not to mention staff time and other resources that many small nonprofit organizations lack in large supply. So how do these nonprofits leverage events to raise funds without all of the overhead and staff time? 

Jennifer Radics-Johnson says you need to turn to third-party events. With third-party events, you're essentially employing volunteers, partner agencies, or your biggest advocates to host events for you. And all you have to do as a nonprofit is receive the funds from the event.

She discusses what third-party fundraisers are, how AARBF is leveraging them, and how you can do the same for your organization.
