The Power and Promise of Engagement: Showing Impact and Saying Thank You
9:30 AM - 10:30 AM CT
Speaker(s): Colin Hennessy, Vice President for Alumni and Donor Engagement, The University of Iowa Center for Advancement
Plenary
In an increasingly crowded philanthropic and engagement landscape, how do you show your donors, fans, friends, volunteers, and community members how much you value them? In this session, we’ll discuss stewardship and how to illustrate a donor or volunteer’s impact on your organization. From thank you notes to events – we’ll talk about what works and what to steer clear of (if given a choice). Showcasing impact and curating donor delight are essential to any successful program. This session serves as a helpful reminder and capstone to the conference and the immense power and promise of you.
