Thursday July 23, 2026 1:00pm - 2:00pm EDT
TBA
This session explores how nonprofits can engage varying donor levels and corporations in mission-driven philanthropy through meaningful donor experiences and corporate gifts. Participants will learn to connect their mission to corporate CSR priorities, center the experiences of those they serve, and clearly articulate ROI. By leveraging donor circles, councils, events, volunteerism, and authentic storytelling, attendees will discover strategies to foster deeper, purpose-driven partnerships that go beyond transactions to co-create real change. Walk away with practical tools to strengthen relationships and position your organization as a compelling business and social value proposition for both corporate and individual partners.
