An Evening for Nonprofit Executives:
The Future of Strategic Fundraising, Technology, and Talent

Event Partners: Learnit, PCS Technologies, Strategic Development Technologies, and 
the San Francisco Hisotrical Society

Event Details:

Join us as we embark on a journey to empower nonprofits to amplify their impact and drive meaningful change in the communities they serve, through a focus on 3 critical areas – advanced technology strategies, fundraising techniques, and the effectiveness of focusing on your team’s professional development. Donations support the SF Historical Society.

We’re in for a treat on the evening of May 16 (and not just the cocktails if you’re with us in-person in the studio audience). Thought leaders of three companies that provide highly valued services to nonprofits will share their thoughts as to the road ahead for mission-driven organizations. They’ll cover a range of topics: fundraising, information technology, and the impact of embedding a learning culture in your organization. (*And if you can join us that evening in-person we’re having a party right there in the museum.)

Without debate, the environment for nonprofits is as challenging today as ever- as is the opportunity to fulfill their missions for those organizations that position themselves accordingly. Our panel of speakers will help us focus on some of the latest approaches, tools, and techniques currently employed by successful mission-driven companies. They’ll also help us shed some light on the nonprofit road ahead in their respective areas of service. No surprise that the discussion will involve the criticality of employing effective data technologies, the power of investing in your people through professional development as a recruitment and retention tool, and basic approaches to engaging a nonprofit constituency- and successfully developing a supportive, loyal donor base.
