    It all seems so simple...ALL you need is MONEY.

    If all you need is money then why do development professionals care about program statistics? Why should program staff care about their outcomes?

    Fundraisers can make a GREAT case to individual donors and corporate sponsors when they have great data to share from their programs. It's a great cycle, excellent program results leads to increased funding for the program to reach more in need.

    In the session "All You Need is Money", Stacey Harris, Founder of Social Evolution, show how program statistics can help you with effective fundraising.

Today's digital messages must also differ from the fundraising messages communicated offline. How do you create memorable digital solicitations and messages that inspire action rather than the delete button? This session will help you understand the best ways to craft digital solicitations and how to create messages that inspire your audience to act.

     

    At the conclusion of this session, participants will:

    • Understand the emotional connection that messages can have with donors
    • Know how to build messaging that inspires action and participation among donors and the general public
