Our next monthly meeting

Today women play an increasingly important role in charitable giving, donating more often than men and with more money to give than ever before. 

Charities that continue to focus on traditional models of male donors/female volunteers will miss out on the building and nurturing a loyal and vibrant donor base. 

In 2019, women of all generations, have unprecedented nancial power – and with that power, can shift personal and family philanthropic priorities – focusing on what matters most to them as donors. 

Can your organization afford to ignore the overwhelming statistics that are the underpinnings for a philanthropic gender shift -when the demands for donor nancial support continue to increase in both value and urgency? 

What is the impact if fundraisers do not change their tune and engage women as they wish to be engaged? 

Intentionally connecting to women as donors will result in unprecedented results for your organization. 

Time:  8:15 am – 8:30 am   Networking
