Welcome to BrainTrust Philanthropy Powered by ViTreo! Bringing you free flowing conversations with top leaders in fundraising, philanthropy, and the nonprofit sector so that you can become a bolder leader, build better relationships, and raise more money.

In this episode, we spoke with Christine McIver, Founder & Chief Executive Officer of Kids Cancer Care Foundation of Alberta; Marina Glogovac, President & CEO of CanadaHelps; and Tanya Koshowski, Executive Director of Brown Bagging for Calgary’s Kids. Our topic was: Is in-person fundraising dead? How does relationship fundraising change as more and more people give online?

SOME OF WHAT YOU WILL HEAR:

  • Developing a high touch strategy is just as important in a high tech world

  • Peer to peer fundraising is powerful

  • Follow-up and following through are just as critical in online giving as they are in face-to-face giving

  • Relationships still matter; online and offline

  • We need to always be preparing for emerging technologies and continuous disruption
