When things get better, things will be different.

Will you be ready? Do you have the courage to make the right changes, now?

Your recession fundraising strategy needs to get you through hard times – and also prepare you for what lies ahead.

How can you change your strategy short-term without crippling your organization long-term?

Join two fundraising innovators from both sides of the Atlantic who will challenge you with their provocative and irreverent new rules. Expect some lively exchanges!

Bernard Ross from the UK and Richard McPherson from the US team up to explore :

• Things you may be doing now that will come back to haunt you when the economy improves
• How technology can help – or hurt – your cause in changing times
• How donors’ expectations are changing, and how you can (and must) respond
• How a fresh long-term strategy can pay short-term dividends
• The importance of innovation as a core competitive advantage

Who Should Attend: Executive Directors, Development Directors, Annual Fund Officers, anyone contemplating a capital campaign or seeking major gifts.
