The Fundraising Everywhere Podcast

Fundraising Everywhere travels to North America! Q & A with Nikki Bell & Tim Sarrantonio, Neon One

Fundraising Everywhere travels to North America! Q & A with Nikki Bell & Tim Sarrantonio, Neon One.

Only 3% of the North American not-for-profit sector attend and access formal fundraising.

That means that the majority of fundraisers are excluded from traditional professional development spaces due to cost of lack of accessibility.

Fundraising Everywhere partnered with Neon to change this.

Together, we've curated the first online North American Individual Giving Virtual Conference; bringing together expert speakers on an engaging, accessible, and affordable virtual event platform to reach every fundraiser, everywhere.

Nikki and Tim talk about why they're excited for this partnership and event, and what it means for North American fundraisers everywhere!

The First Individual Giving North America is launching on May 18th! You can register here: https://www.fundraisingeverywhere.com/product/ignorthamerica/ - Use discount code FEPODCAST for a 50% discount.

The data you need to make decisions

In a data-driven society, we know that data is important to make good decisions. But as we all know that can be easier said than done, particularly in charities. In this session, we discuss the foes of data: the seven deadly sins of data practices that actually short-circuit our decision processes. Next, we discuss the foundations of good strategy and how many times we conflate other ideas with strategy. Finally, we talk about the features of good strategy. At the end, you'll be able to answer the question: does your data help you focus so that you can make the best decision possible and do the next right thing.
