Panelists will explore barriers to accessing support, share strategies and resources that have made a difference, and reflect on the resilience, connection, and hope that sustain caregivers along the journey.

12 PM - 1 PM
Webinar

Presented by GrantWin.

 

As the new federal fiscal year approaches and we await the details of the final rule that could remake how federal grants are announced, awarded, and monitored, organizations still relying on old ways and non-collaborative processes will fall further behind. Findings from research conducted by MIT Sloan Management Review found that cross-functional teams give organizations broader access to diverse perspectives and skill sets. Organizations that remove silos and get departments working from shared knowledge consistently outperform those that don't. Shared knowledge is a must in compliance-heavy environments.

 

Join GrantWin CEO Patrice Davis and Dr. Tanitra Scorza as they share how compliance stalls when one person holds all the institutional knowledge, staff retention is weak, and software is treated as the fix.

Webinar

Presented by Chronicle of Philanthropy.

 

Join this 75-minute webinar to get detailed guidance from two experts: an evaluation consultant who helps nonprofits use program data to fuel fundraising, and a development leader with deep experience communicating impact to corporate, foundation, and individual donors. 

 

They’ll walk through how to identify the metrics that matter most and share a tool to help you get started. They’ll also explain how to gather data consistently with the resources you have, weave your data into stories that feel personal, and partner with program and communications staff to share results with donors.  

 

You’ll learn: 

  • Which kinds of metrics show impact and which don’t 
  • How to tailor your impact story for each donor audience 
  • How to present data in engaging visual formats and use AI to help
