Association of Fundraising Professionals Santa Barbara/Ventura Counties Chapter

Has there ever been a more uncertain atmosphere for fundraising? We’re being barraged hourly with ways COVID-19 is affecting our daily lives and we’re still doing laundry, making meals and checking email. As nonprofit professionals, we’re still serving clients, and — hopefully — still stewarding donors and balancing our budget. The reality is that focusing on critical fundamentals of fundraising is the only way to succeed, in good times and bad. But you’re asking: Should we ask for a gift now? Should we hold our event? Should we send out a mailing? We are excited to bring Lori Jacobwith to this discussion. Lori was initially slated to be our headline speaker for our Annual Symposium Event, but with that event being postponed for the time being, we are thrilled Lori has still graciously offered to bring her expertise to our members - this conversation is even more important in the age of COVID.---Named one of America’s Top 25 Fundraising Experts, Lori L. Jacobwith of ignitedfundraising.com is an internationally-recognized master storyteller and fundraising culture change expert. Lori has more than 35 years’ experience helping nonprofit organizations raise more than $350 million dollars from individual donors. And counting.
