While our United Way network has collectively raised hundreds of millions of dollars for COVID-19 relief in the past few months, these funds are just a drop in the bucket of what will be needed to recover from the pandemic. Moving forward, donor engagement will be even more critical and challenging. Join us for Respond, Recover, Reimagine, Rebuild: Donor Engagement in a New Normal to discover how to engage donors differently and effectively in a post-COVID-19 world. Designed for United Way staff, this two-day virtual event will not only feature tactical content that had been prepared for Fundraising for Impact Summit, Women United Summit, Advocacy Forum, Labor Engagement Summit and Strategic Volunteer Engagement Summit, but also present new and refreshed donor engagement strategies that will help local United Ways address the challenges caused by the coronavirus crisis. Approaching donor engagement with an equity lens, the conference will provide attendees with an equity-centric framework for navigating shifting priorities and transforming donor engagement practices to maximize our impact in every community we serve.

Donor Engagement in a New Normal will be hosted in conjunction with United Ways of California in lieu of the Western Regional Conference. Because the content of this event is critically important to the success of our network, registration is FREE for all United Way staff and volunteers.

The greatest potential we have as a network to increase giving, and thereby impact our communities, is by continuing to grow and strengthen our major gift programs. This unique opportunity, offered with Veritus Group, offers comprehensive major gift training opportunities, with a Tocqueville twist, for United Way network professionals whether veteran or new-to-the-craft. This unique virtual opportunity is a multi-media extravaganza of learning and also offers up to 36 CFRE credits.
