Solving Today's Fundraising Challenges with Responsive Fundraising

Andrew Olsen, EVP of Fundraising Solutions, DickersonBakker
Matt Bailey, Senior Training Specialist, Virtuous

We live in a new world where donor expectations are shaped by their personalized behaviors and interactions, yet many nonprofits still rely on “one-size-fits-all” communication strategies that fail to resonate. In this keynote session, Matt Bailey from Virtuous joined by Andrew Olsen, a fundraising industry leader will explore the pain points of this outdated approach and reveal how Responsive Fundraising offers a better way forward. By leveraging data, automation, and personalization, Responsive Fundraising helps nonprofits deliver the right message to the right person at the right time—creating stronger donor relationships and driving greater impact. Learn how to embrace this behavior-based model and take the first steps toward building a more dynamic, sustainable fundraising strategy.
