Would you like to become a better fund-raiser? Does your athletic department lack the funds to build your team’s ideal practice facility? Do you struggle to purchase uniforms or equipment?

For the first time, Lemak Sports Medicine & Orthopedics, a proud supporter of your high school athletics, has partnered with the J.F. Smith Group, one of the nation’s top-ranking consulting firms in fund-raising, to equip you with the tools needed to elevate your fund-raising activity to the next level.

Jerry F. Smith, President and CEO of the J.F. Smith Group, renowned author, lecturer, teacher and fund-raising consultant, will join Kay Hargrave, Senior Associate Athletics Director of Development at Auburn University, as our guest speakers to deliver powerful presentations in fund-raising.

Together Jerry and Kay will provide valuable insight on how to effectively cultivate relationships to grow your athletic program. Jerry will provide fund-raising techniques on how to ask for major leadership gifts with his proven five-step approach in a solicitation. Plus, participants will learn how Auburn University Athletics received over $170 million in its most recent capital campaign.

Don’t miss your chance to learn valuable fund-raising tips from the professionals. This extremely informative seminar is a great opportunity for your principal, coaches, athletic directors and booster club presidents!
