Ben Vorspan Biography

Ben Vorspan has been serving the nonprofit community for more than 20 years and, during that time, has built a reputation for the creativity that he injects into nonprofit marketing, communications, fundraising, programming, and membership engagement. After graduating from UC Santa Barbara, Vorspan began working in marketing, communications, and creative roles with an assortment of businesses and organizations, including the Hebrew Union College, The Jewish Federation of Greater Los Angeles, schools, religious organizations, and a variety of mission-driven nonprofits.

In 2007, Vorspan founded Inspired Multimedia, Inc., a consulting firm specializing in working with nonprofit organizations around the world to build websites, improve marketing efforts, and provide tools and resources customized to fit this niche. In 2023, he became a published author when his debut book, "The Nonprofit Imagineers," was published by Business Expert Press. The book explores how to use the same principles that make Disney Imagineering the gold standard of imaginative thinking to transform your organization into an equally inventive and creative environment. It discusses how innovation works, how to address the problems that nonprofits face when trying to think creatively, and how more innovation can happen at nonprofits, no matter how small the budget, how meager the staff, how tight the board oversight, or how limited the time commitment.
