As a dedicated educator, I remain deeply committed to supporting local historical societies, small museums, and non-profit genealogical chapters. If your organization is operating on a restricted educational budget but is highly interested in a specific topic, please do not hesitate to reach out.
We can often discuss creative solutions to align with your budget, including:
- Virtual Webinar Transitions: Shifting an out-of-area program to a live interactive webinar to eliminate lodging and travel expenses.
- Multi-Society Hosting: Partnering with a neighboring county society or lineage chapter to co-host a full-day seminar, allowing multiple groups to split the speaker honorarium.
- Off-Peak Scheduling: Booking presentations during standard off-peak mid-week meeting cycles.
Please contact me directly to discuss how we can collaboratively bring high-quality lectures to your society members.
