In this episode, your host Amy Milne gets real with Molly Fast, Director of Fundraising and Development at Event 360. Like so many of us, Molly didn't know what she wanted to do as a career and chose the oh-so-popular Communications as her major in university. However, when her sister completed the Susan G. Komen 3-Day Series event during their mom's breast cancer treatment, Molly just knew she had to be a part of it and twenty years later, she's still at it. Not only is she a fundraising expert in her professional life, but she has spent the last 12 years participating in the Cycle for Survival to raise critical funds for rare cancers (Molly would argue it's a side hustle, but as you'll hear from Amy, it's far from it!). Molly likes to say that fundraising is her love language and we feel so lucky to be able to benefit from that as she shares so many practical tips and takeaways that you can start to implement right away. Buckle up for a healthy dose of inspiration and motivation; this episode is sure to get you fired up for your next fundraising event!

Molly is always happy to connect and talk all things fundraising. You can reach her via email at mfast@event360.com or on LinkedIn.

”The cause is secondary; they're donating because they love you and this is important to you.” – Molly Fast
