"Simply put, philanthropy is a relative drop in the bucket…. There is no conceivable way to make up for inadequate public spending through philanthropy.” ~Elena Marks and Ann Stern
The nonprofit sector can no longer afford to stay silent on how public resources are distributed and on the policies that affect our missions and the people we serve. As fundraisers, we are positioned to engage with our donors and help them grow into powerful advocates for our causes. In this session, we will address the myths and fears about the “L-word” (Lobbying), and hear from donors, turned advocates, about their experience.
