The Institute of Fundraising Technology Group are holding a [one day conference on May 13th](http://www.iofitsig.org/conf2011/programme.htm)
in London, where Johnny Chatterton, from online campaigning organisation 38 Degrees(
the tipping point of an avalanche!) will talk about how over ½ million signatures
were gained to stop the proposed sell-off of our forests, and how an online social
community of campaigners has been built and have taken over 2.6m actions to date.
Truly inspirational!

**There will be three streams of seminars** (eFundraising, Strategy, Technology)
and a fantastic list of speakers (Shelter, BHF, the Stroke Association, Sayer Vincent,
Baigent Digital, Twittorial, more…)

The conference is for anyone interested in technology and fundraising, whether they
