Growing Philanthropy Print E-mail
Friday, 03 February 2012 13:32


In the past 10 years, nonprofits have grown, seemingly against all odds.  Creativity, resilience, and educated leadership helped create this atmosphere.  To foster continued growth, in June 2011, many notable nonprofit leaders, from a variety of service areas in the US, got together to discuss the key ingredients to their success in the Growing Philanthropy Summit.  Follow this link to read the executive summary of what emerged as most important from this summit. 

If you guessed ongoing relationships with donors would be important, you're right.  It's also important to fully educate your board. Now is the time, they are saying, to find and engage new audiences.  Read the summit report to find long term growth opportunities you may not have explored.
