Details on the session and speakers are below. 

Storytelling and Fundraising Across the Generations

Not all generations are created equal. Growing up during different times of communication and technological advancements, each generation of donors has developed different ways to connect with causes they’re passionate about.  For nonprofits, catering to each generation through multi-channel marketing can drastically improve outreach and fundraising efforts. What is the story you tell the Baby Boomers and how does it differentiate from the one told to GenZ or Millennials? What are the different tools to be used across the generations?

Speakers:
- Allison Nickerson, Executive Director, LiveOn NY (moderator)
- Emily Ashton, Chief External Affairs Officer, America Needs You
- Wayne Ho, President & CEO, Chinese-American Planning Council, Inc.
