Surfing the Next Wave of Philanthropy: New Strategies for Intergenerational Fundraising

Surfing the Next Wave of Philanthropy: New Strategies for Intergenerational Fundraising Today's philanthropic landscape includes the largest span of generations in recent history-- from the Millennial Generation to the Greatest Generation; people of all ages are engaged in fundraising. What motivates each generation to give, however, is very different, and requires a variety of communication styles and cases for support. In this session, we will discuss key motivations for these donor groups and effective methods for engaging new philanthropists.
