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.

We were joined by Suzanne Chui, Dance Artist and Co-Artistic Director at Mocean Dance; Rickesh Lakhani, Executive Director at Future Possibilities for Kids; and Cindy Wagman, President and Founder of The Good Partnership.

The Topic: Small Nonprofits - Why Working So Closely to Your Mission Can Be Both Hugely Rewarding and Highly Challenging

SOME OF WHAT YOU WILL HEAR:

• The challenges:

  • having to wear many hats

  • being a “reluctant fundraiser”

  • lack of capacity building opportunities and more

• The rewards:

  • Small nonprofits are more resourceful

  • Donor relationships look very different when you know all your donors by name

  • Small nonprofits are uniquely positioned to be nimble, adaptive, and fast

• All this and and so much more!
