2nd Annual Thinking Outside the Box Seminar
The seminar was offered last year by its founders E. Sue Huff and Kelly E. Capolino as a means to help many of the non-profits that they already support. Because the event was so well attended, it will now be an annual event.

Reservations are now being taken for the second annual “Thinking Outside the Box” seminar for local non-profits. The seminar will offer creative suggestions for thinking about fundraising, donors, boards, media, alliances, and more. The free seminar will be held on Thursday, August 25 from 9 a.m. to noon at the Naples Daily News Community Room, located at 1100 Immokalee Road in Naples.
The seminar features six speakers this year and will run one hour longer to accommodate questions and other hot topics. The speakers are: Sue Huff, owner of E. Sue Huff & Associates; Scott Robertson of Scott Robertson Auctioneers; Paul Kessen, President of Allegra of Naples; Karl M. Salathé, Director of Institutional Advancement at Seacrest Country Day School; Penny Moore of the Naples Daily News; and Kelly E. Capolino, Realtor and Founder of the Diamond Volunteer Programs.
“Non-profits are encouraged to attend to learn helpful tips in the areas of public relations, media coverage, fundraising opportunities, volunteer appreciation programs, how to get more out of your board members and more. The presenters will offer free programs geared mainly for non-profits. Plus, all attendees will have a chance to nominate their organization for a free volunteer reception and award,” said Huff.
“Again this year, attendees will be given materials to take with them so they can use the information they gained immediately. We know that economic times have hit everyone and non-profits are suffering still. We need to help them as much as we can to be successful and to keep their services up and running. This seminar is just one way we thought we could give back to them – by offering information for thinking outside the box and we were so proud of the turnout last year,” said Capolino.
The second annual “Thinking Outside the Box” seminar is free, but space is limited. Reservations may be made by emailing the name of the organization wishing to attend and the number of people wishing to attend with names and contact info to Sue@ESueHuff.com.
