The nonprofit sector has undergone a great deal of upheaval and change over the past few years, but in turn that has led to a number of exciting new developments and trends in digital fundraising.

Creating a Personalized Space That Highlights Your Mission and Community

When it comes to building relationships with your constituents, it’s important to reach them where they are — and that’s (surprise, surprise) on their phones. One way is to provide your constituents with a (virtual) communal space where they can interact, support one another in their fundraising efforts, or become more involved with your organization.

In this session, we’ll introduce you to Engage by Charity Dynamics, a new app that provides just that: a personalized space for nurturing relationships, sparking engagement and building on your mission.

Reviewing the Rapidly Changing Peer-to-Peer Landscape and What It Means to Your Organization

Peer-to-peer fundraising has been greatly transformed due to the pandemic. One of the biggest impacts, of course, was the transition from in-person to virtual events, forever altering constituents’ expectations for peer-to-peer events.

But what else has been happening in this quickly evolving fundraising space? In this session, we look at some of the major changes that have taken place in peer-to-peer fundraising and what this means for some of the traditional players in the space — as well as for some of the new entrants on the scene.
