კარგი ინიციატივაა, განსაკუთრებით რომ ხელში იღებენ ნამდვილ გეგმას და არა მხოლოდ თეორიას. რომში, ჯორჯიაში, ოქტომბერში ჩატარება საინტერესო ადგილია. ვინმეს თუ ყოფილა იქედან, როგორია გარემო?

მაია ჩხეიძე

მარიამ, სრულიად ვეთანხმები — გეგმის ხელში აღება უფრო მნიშვნელოვანია ვიდრე უბრალო ლექციები. რომში, ჯორჯიაში არ ვყოფილვარ, მაგრამ ბათუმიდან რომ გავიხსენო, ასეთი რიტრიტები ძალიან მშვიდ გარემოს ქმნის. შენ ხომ არ გაქვს გამოცდილება მსგავს ტრეინინგებზე?

Suena interesante el enfoque práctico, eso de armar el plan de fundraising en tiempo real en vez de solo escuchar teoría. Nunca he estado en Rome, Georgia, pero me imagino que el retiro debe dar un ambiente tranquilo como dices. ¿Alguien sabe si el programa cuesta mucho o dan becas?

Paul Johnson

Sounds like a solid setup — building an actual fundraising plan on the spot instead of just sitting through talks is way more useful. Never been to Rome, Georgia, but a quiet retreat spot in October could be nice for that kind of work. Anyone know what the cost ends up being?

Emily Walker

Yeah, building the actual plan right there beats listening to theory any day. The Rome, GA spot should be perfect in October — cooler weather and fewer distractions. I haven't seen the final price either, but their last intensives ran around $2,200 including meals and lodging.
