The Kindelsperger Forum: Recession Proof Fundraising Strategies

Sponsored by:



Pandemic...inflation...recession OH MY! The last few years have been filled with uncertainty and a bit of panic. It seems the news cycle hasn't diminished our worries at all. How should fundraisers react to news of recession and how should our fundraising practices adapt to the current realities? In this session, we'll uncover the most recent research and data on what's happening right now as well as what historically has happened during recessions to create a framework for nonprofits to help with budgeting, planning, and fundraising strategies. We'll also discuss how to have meaningful donor conversations during times of economic distress and build stronger relationships. Join us to be encouraged about your own year-end fundraising as well as learn where specific opportunities are available for continued impact.
