Session

The Individual Giving Virtual Summit will be a first of its kind, online gathering of agencies, consultants and practitioners sharing their passion for the craft of communicating and fundraising to individual donors.

It will be a day filled with practical knowledge, case studies and ideas. Some of the sessions will be focused on direct mail, having multi-channel conversations with donors, how to build a program from scratch using digital, starting with a great case, how the donor brain works and what you need to know about it to fundraise smarter, legacy giving, and so much more.

The summit will be targeted toward fundraisers who work in annual giving, individual giving, direct response and communications.

We’ll be broadcasting this 2-room virtual summit at three different times across the 8th, 9th and 10th of June.

Your All-Access Ticket will give you 3 days to watch any or all of the broadcasts and to access all of the bonus sessions.

By the end of the session, attendees will walk away with a comprehensive understanding of how these channels work, why it can be a valuable tool in the world of legacy fundraising, and practical steps to leverage these channels to amplify their campaigns and engage new supporters.
