Nobody can predict our economic future. But in tough times, whether driven by the economy, the environment or political events, there are simple yet sometimes counterintuitive steps you can take to ensure that your organization will suffer the least possible damage in a down economy -- and emerge healthy and poised for renewed growth when the economic crisis has passed.

Participants can expect:

  • An overview of how the economy affects fundraising
  • Step-by-step tips for developing an effective fundraising strategy during a downturn
  • Practical steps organizations can take to survive (and thrive!) in the future
  • A live Q&A session with our presenter 

This event is over, but you can listen to the recording  and download the transcript below.
