    What fundraising or nonprofit management challenge are you working through? Bring it to Ask the Experts and get practical advice, fresh perspective, and ideas you can put to use.

    We’ve assembled some of our region’s most experienced development professionals and subject matter experts to offer guidance on topics ranging from grants and corporate support to fundraising diversification, planned giving, and more. (Complete topic list tbd.) 

    How it works:
    Each expert will host a table focused on a specific topic/challenge. Attendees will have time to visit three tables (for approximately 30 minutes each), to talk through ideas, get expert perspective, and learn from the experiences of others. 

    Who should attend:
    Nonprofit development professionals, executive directors, marketing staff, board members, and volunteers.

    Strong donor relationships are built through meaningful and consistent engagement. In this practical, hands-on session, learn how to create a donor engagement plan that keeps supporters connected to your organization and its mission throughout the year.

    We’ll explore how to plan engagement by donor potential, develop meaningful touchpoints that express gratitude, demonstrate impact and create community, and connect engagement to cultivation and moves management.

    Participants will begin building your own plan during the session, leaving with a practical framework for more intentional stewardship, stronger relationships, and long-term donor retention.

Our members say:

“I’m engaging my donors as I like to be engaged: thoughtfully, respectfully, a dash of humor, and building the relationship – and the gifts are coming!”

“I am watching our board and staff move from skepticism about being able to raise money to being engaged and empowered.”

“I was able to get approval on increasing the frequency of an event from every two years to annually, and helped increase online giving by 12% through crowdfunding for a climate change research organization.”

“A fundraising audit prompted the creation of our first annual report…which led to three times the $$$ on our annual appeal. (And we won a design award for the report as well!)”
