Here's how it feels right now. I have so much love for this sector, and so much vision.
But looking at other online conferences, I am so done with the same voices, feeling stale and stagnant.
I want to try something different.
Please join me us at the New Power Fundraising Conference. You'll hear fresh voices, new perspectives on successful fundraising during quarantimes, and claiming your power.
Each day will leave lots of time in between sessions for rest, networking with fellow attendees, chat, questions and answers, and community building.
If you attend the whole conference, you can get 12.75 CFRE credits too!

Creativity is the key to navigating the unknown from a place of empowerment -- it is how we re-envision systems and dream more equitable, just worlds into being.
As this year spins us into greater and greater uncertainty, how do we carve out space to play and innovate in the face of fear, rage and despair? How do we tap into the wonderfully weird, mischievous aspects or ourselves and harness them as powerful allies in the midst of chaos?
In this session, we will:
Break down the concept of “creativity” and why play is one of the most powerful forms of resilience
Cover simple strategies for getting grounded and moving through paralysis
Discuss tools and structures that support creative problem-solving for groups and individuals
