How to Transition Fundraising Events to Virtual Events

Featured Intermediate, Fundraising, Intermediate

For many organizations, the crisis surrounding the spread of the Coronavirus is drastically and negatively impacting our fundraising. For organizations hosting physical fundraising events, such as a 5k, fundraising gala, or auction, many are being forced to cancel the event. Some nonprofit organizations are converting these fundraising events into virtual events, hoping to convert donors through a different channel.

As I saw my fellow nonprofit fundraisers struggling with how to best present virtual fundraising events, I setup a video call to bring these organizations together to hear from industry experts, glean from their wisdom, and be able to ask questions around converting events to digital fundraising opportunities. I recorded the call so as many people can benefit from this knowledge as possible.
