About This Webinar
Don’t risk building your development strategy on giving trends of the past. Fundraising professionals need to understand the current landscape and anticipate shifts that could impact future donor support. Often referred to as the most comprehensive report on philanthropy in America, Giving USA’s Annual Report on Philanthropy offers important insights that support fundraising success. In this pre-recorded webinar, Kelly Rollison from The Compass Group will do the work for you, culling the latest 400-page report, synthesizing data from additional reports and surveys to highlight the most notable findings and national fundraising trends, and providing actionable steps that will advance your land trust’s fundraising program. You’ll receive a handout with action steps to review your data and giving programs and Kelly’s spreadsheet template for creating a baseline from the last five years of your fundraising data.
Here’s a look at key topics covered:
National fundraising trends for foundation, corporate and wealth transfer.
Recent changes in individual philanthropic giving.
The latest on volunteerism in the United States.
Giving to and by donor-advised funds.
Impacts on your land trust’s fundraising program.
This pre-recorded webinar is included in the 2025 Webinar Pass.
