Smart Dog School of Fundraising Invited to Speak in Australia

July 28, 2011 - PRLog -- Tim Crum, the founder and CEO of the Arizona-based Smart Dog School of Fundraising, has been invited to give a three-day fundraising workshop in Sydney, Australia.   From August 23-25, Tim will present six fundraising classes to delegates representing several dozen animal welfare organizations from across Australia’s six states.   Mr. Crum is a nationally recognized expert on animal welfare fundraising and marketing.   In addition to his upcoming Australian presentations, he has previously been invited to speak on fundraising topics at ten national and state conferences, including the Conference on Homeless Animal Management and Policy and PetSmart Charities’ Fix It Forum.

The Smart Dog School of Fundraising was formed by Tim Crum in the fall of 2009 to provide hands on fundraising instruction based on actual fundraising campaigns that were demonstrated to be highly successful.  The School is the only educational fundraising program instructed by former animal welfare fundraising professionals.  Since the School’s inception less than two years ago, the School has provided fundraising workshops in 18 different American cities, selling out in 14 of them,    including large market cities such as Los Angeles, Chicago and Atlanta.  The School has trained over 1,000 animal welfare professionals during this period.

The three-day workshop is being sponsored and hosted by Therian (formerly known as Kennel Solutions).  Therian is Australia’s leading design company specializing in the animal welfare industry through offerings of consultation services and innovative products to the pet boarding, veterinary, animal shelter and pound industry sectors in Australia and New Zealand.  Therian also supplies many of this country’s most recognized animal shelter products such as Kuranda dog beds and Mason Company animal enclosures.
