Nonprofits everywhere are navigating a shifting philanthropic landscape. With federal funding cuts, decreased global aid, and increasing pressure on resources, organizations are turning more than ever to individual giving. At the same time, Giving USA reported that charitable donations reached $592.5 billion in 2024 — a 3.3% increase over 2023 — showing that opportunity still exists for those who adapt.
As part of the Altrata Fundraising Academy, we are hosting a webinar in partnership with Lexykon Consulting to share actionable strategies for strengthening individual giving during times of uncertainty.
What You’ll Learn:
- Key philanthropic trends shaping 2025, including the impact of government aid cuts
- The rising importance of individual giving and major donor strategies
- How to leverage non-cash giving opportunities like DAFs, donated stock, and in-kind gifts
- Best practices and tools you can leverage to connect with donors effectively
- Practical solutions nonprofits can use to build resilience in a volatile environment
This webinar is for fundraising professionals, nonprofit leaders, and philanthropy experts who want to enhance their fundraising strategies and ensure their organization’s mission has a lasting impact even in the face of turbulent times.
