What Got You Here, Won't Get You There - Engage the Next Generation of Donors with Philanthropy 2.0
The philanthropic landscape is shifting: your next generation of donors - Gen-C (C for Connected) will have a wealth of disposable income, but will communicate in vastly different ways than any generation prior. You may be saying to yourself - we're digital, we have an online donation portal, we send email appeals, we even have a Twitter feed. That may be a start, but are you mobile? Have you figured out how to harness the power of social media to increase your organizational discovery, to grow your donations? Do you have a technology strategy in place that connects you with today's youth, and cultivates those relationships for tomorrow?
If you want to learn more about Gen-C, the shifting mobile landscape and how your organization can capitalize on this trend today to increase it's donations, then join us for this stimulating discussion.
