Summer Fundraising Fundamentals: Heat Up Your Development Program

The pandemic disrupted every aspect of the nonprofit industry, requiring nonprofits to adapt quickly. This has created challenges, but also opportunities to reimagine how constituents want to engage, and use these learnings to fuel long-term strategies. Rather than falling back on "traditional" ways of engagement, we can evolve our technology and strategies to create a giving experience for supporters and work experience for fundraisers that is more agile and innovative. Join us for a webinar for tips on building agile End-of-Year strategies that scale and engage supporters in more personalized and meaningful ways.

During this presentation, we will reveal best practices for planned giving programs that any nonprofit can implement immediately. No need for dedicated staff or a long list of prospects to grow your program. The best practices will cover areas of marketing, donor solicitations, boards, and operations.

Why reinvent the fundraising wheel when you can borrow ideas from your nonprofit peers? Spring is in the air! There’s no better time to organize your donor information. Whether it’s living in spreadsheets, multiple systems, or just really outdated or inaccurate, Network for Good’s Donor Management System will refresh your fundraising operations and give you the foundation you need to send spring appeals and manage your events follow-up.

Delighting the donor is not always best. Yes, we said it. And yes, we know it's considered blasphemy in traditional fundraising. Join us for this conversation where we'll unpack the legacy of donor centricity and its effect on today's nonprofit organizations working toward systemic change. In this session, featuring Bethany Maki of Progressive Multiplier and a panel of leaders across the direct service and direct action spectrum, we'll discuss: how organizations that work within current power systems and those trying to shift those systems offer a different value proposition to donors how donor motivation and "passing the mic" struggle to mix; how deep base building and fundraising similarly struggle to mix how 501c legal structures exacerbate the value proposition/donor motivation alignment divide between direct service and direct action groups what we can do about all of this to better resource groups whether they are providing direct service, direct action or both
