As we reflect on the past year, learn more about the impact of virtual events, tax deductions for donations, and reactions from nonprofits to Biden’s presidential win in this month’s Pulse of Fundraising.
Congratulations to our member who has recently changed positions:
Personally and professionally, many of us have been asking ourselves questions about the state of our world, particularly with regard to the COVID-19 pandemic as well as racial and social injustice. Instead of grappling with these challenges individually, we thought that our community could benefit from coming together and growing our understanding by exploring these topics through the lens of philanthropy.
The morning began with greetings from WID’s President, Kellen Epstein and two 15-minute networking sessions. It was a wonderful way to start the morning and was a fun, virtual replacement for the normal networking that would happen in the room at a WID event.
Wondering where to start with End-of-year fundraising? Need a few pointers to freshen up your materials? Look no further! WID has you covered in this month’s pulse of fundraising.
Title & Organization: Development Associate, My Life My Choice
Women in Development of Greater Boston is thrilled to announce our first-ever Scholarship Program for the 2021 year.
On October 27, 2020, WID brought to light a question that many within the development profession are asking themselves daily. How do we continue moving forward with our major gifts program during a global pandemic? This program, sponsored by CCS Fundraising, gave attendees concrete suggestions from both fundraisers and donors alike, that although much has changed around us, the basics remain. We still need to continue making those asks, reach out to our constituents and building deeper connections with our donor base.
