Successful Fundraising Strategies for Uncertain Times

Kristin Borst, Development Director, Wisconsin Historical Foundation

Sean Lynch, Strategic Partnership Officer, Wisconsin Historical Foundation

How do successful nonprofit organizations adapt, innovate, and seek new opportunities for funding in difficult times? Learn how to help your organization adapt traditional fundraising fundamentals and strategies during the COVID-19 pandemic. We will discuss a variety of strategies and tools you can use, including major gifts fundraising, grants, and virtual gatherings, to connect with donors in this new environment and inspire giving. Donors want to help their favorite organizations continue to do important work and serve their constituencies. We will discuss how nonprofit staff and volunteers can reach out, share impact, and create meaningful opportunities for donors to help.
