Description

In the philanthropic community now, we have the greatest span of generations in recent memory—as donors, volunteers and professional practitioners. As we develop our fundraising programs, we must consider that each generation has different motivations for philanthropy, different modes of communication, and different ways that they will act. So how do we engage Baby Boomers, Generation X, Millennials and the activist Gen Z in our causes? In this session, we will talk about characteristics of the generations, communication methods, and do's and don’ts in intergenerational development.
