8 Questions
8 Questions Political elections, economic recessions, and socio-political events all impact philanthropy. In what ways do any and all of these impact planned, annual, and major giving?

How should nonprofit leaders respond when new issues or trending topics in society divert a donor’s established funding passions? Please join three expert industry leaders – Ann A. Deppman, Tarsha Whitaker Calloway, and Wayne Olson – in a timely panel discussion about these issues and more!
