It’s time to open the toolbox and tackle the tough stuff. Fundraising Fix-It: Insights You Didn’t Know You Needed brings together top minds and hands-on practitioners from across the fund development sector to diagnose what’s broken, sharpen what’s working, and offer the tools you didn’t know you needed to build a stronger, more sustainable fundraising strategy. 

From structural challenges to emerging trends, our panelists will offer brief, powerful opening insights before diving into a dynamic, moderated conversation—complete with audience Q&A. Whether you’re tightening your donor pipeline, rewiring your board engagement, or patching up campaign fatigue, this session will leave you with fresh perspectives, real-world strategies, and the inspiration to get to work.
