Looking forward to leading this webinar conversation on Planned Giving for the Small Shop tomorrow. Join me!

Speaking of trends in giving, declining retention rates, fewer donors, "small dollar" giving, and All The Things #Fundraising, I am really looking forward to my OneCause webinar debut on Wednesday. Grateful, too, to Dawn Lynn Lego, CMP for inviting me and for being a terrific partner in developing this discussion . . . "Falling for Generosity" - I'm an unabashed, unapologetic, wide-eyed, goofy optimist about the power of generosity and our ability as enablers and empower-ers (is that word?) of giving to change the world (or at least our little corners of it.) This session is an update to my annual (going on 10 years now!!) compilation of industry trends, reports, statistics - no opinions or conjectures here, just actual data of what IS happening - and the time for this is really good with the GivingUSA report recently released, GivingTuesday's "Lookback" report released last week and a number of mid-year giving updates . . . . . We'll for sure talk about tactics heading into the last part of the year -- some call it "the giving season" I say the giving season is any time we invite communities into our missions, but there are certainly approaches in Q3 and Q4 that'll help 'rise above the noise.' Tune in, too, as we dispel myths about how hard it is to raise money during an election year and amidst economic turmoil. Come with questions/thoughts/comments - I know we'd love to hear from you as part of this conversation!

Join 14 other fundraiser on 26 March as I reveal how to lead the strategic development of your charity’s narrative, so that it enables great fundraising. In Sargeant and Jay’s book “Fundraising Management: Analysis, Planning and Practice” it was shared that longitudinal analysis demonstrates that charities who consistently convey and reinforce what makes them distinctive, outperform others in the long run. Fundraisers can gain strategic control of this distinctive narrative through careful cross-organisation collaboration to define their charity’s value proposition. https://lnkd.in/gQfyXqfq
