Fundraising specialist and author Ken Burnett will deliver the keynote address at the Blackbaud 2nd annual European Conference for Non-profits in London in October.
Burnett’s theme will be “Brilliant Fundamentals: Four Stories that Should Shape Our Approach to Fundraising.” He will use four different stories to illustrate what he believes are some of the most important fundamentals in fundraising today:
- What is a donor?
- Why do donors give non-profits their money?
- How can we learn from the experiences of other fundraisers?
- Why, ultimately, are we here, doing what we do?
