SUMMARY:Webinar Series: Generational Giving Strategies from Washington Nonprofits
DESCRIPTION:The WVNPA has partnered with Washington Nonprofits to offer some of their programming to our members for a discount. WVNPA Members only pay $30 for this webinar series! Email ashley@dev.wvnpa.org for the discount code. \n*NOTE: This webinar series takes place from 3:00 – 4:00 PM EST on each date. (The 12:00 – 1:00 PM time is PST) \nTwo 60-minute webinars\, Tuesdays\, June 4 and June 11\, 2019. \nREGISTER HERE \nFundraising is about getting to know your donors’ values\, beliefs\, and experiences. Knowing and understanding their generational tendencies (i.e. Matures\, Baby Boomers\, Generation X\, Millennials\, and Generation Z) is one way to help build stronger relationships. Learn the characteristic differences between each generation and how to build upon those in your development and communications plan implementation. Develop your events to target audiences and segment your appeals to speak the language of your donors. For example\, why send a direct mail piece to a Millennial\, if they don’t have a checkbook? We will talk about social media platforms too\, and how to effectively boost your donor engagement. Our world keeps changing and as nonprofit organizations we need to be nimble and continue to adjust our approach\, staying true to the fundamental rule of fundraising: it’s all about the people. \nLEARNING OUTCOMES:\nYou will leave this workshop with: \n\nKnowledge about each of the five generations and their tendencies to apply to your own donor data\nFundraising strategies to address each generation in a targeted way\nNew ideas on how to engage your audience through different social media platforms\, with a generational lens\nReasons why personalizing and segmenting your donor development and communications activities by generation will yield deeper relationships with your donors.\n\nAll sessions take place Tuesdays from 12:00pm to 1:00pm Pacific Time. All sessions will be recorded and the recordings will be made available to all registered participants. Participants who are unable to attend one or more of the sessions will still have access to all course materials. \nABOUT THE PRESENTER: \nRebecca Zanatta\, Partner & Vice President\, Ostara Group\nRebecca loves philanthropy. She has spent her career in nonprofit management teaching people the value of relationships. Her philosophy focuses on people and putting the why first. Spending time with family and seeking adventure through travel is where you will find her when she isn’t trying to better the world through the power of philanthropy. Participating in community is an important value of Rebecca’s work. She is a past President of Northwest Development Officers Association (NDOA)\, now AFP – Advancement Northwest\, the largest professional association of fundraisers in Washington State.

SUMMARY:Webinar Series: What's White Got to Do With It? Part 2 from the North Carolina Center for Nonprofits
DESCRIPTION:Join the North Carolina Center for Nonprofits for the 2-part webinar\,\nWhat’s White Got To Do With It? Disrupting Race-Based Inequities in Well-Intentioned Nonprofits. \n*You must register for each webinar separately. \nMay 22\, 12-1:30 pm\nPART 1 – Register Here: Key moments in United States history have established whiteness as the default\, the norm\, the supreme culture. This webinar will explore the socio-political and historical contexts of whiteness and how the white dominant culture by which most nonprofits operate was constructed and has been upheld through policy\, legal decisions\, and Eurocentric cultural values. Participants will have a chance to explore their own roles as gatekeepers within their organizations and how they can disrupt race-based inequity by leveraging their own individual and collective power. \nJune 5\, 12-1:30 pm\nPart 2 – Register Here: Take a deeper dive into the extent that white dominant cultural tendencies have been internalized and operationalized within our nonprofits and the role that gatekeepers have in perpetuating or disrupting non-inclusive practices and policies. We’ll explore tactics that unite your staff and board in prioritizing equity and looking at the organization’s work and culture through a racial equity lens. \n$35 for WVNPA Members\, $50 for nonmembers \n REGISTER!
