Yaletown is Vancouver’s Dining District, with Discount Monday Night

Yaletown is Vancouver’s trendy and upscale renovated warehouse district, boasting a huge variety of restaurants, sports bars and late-night lounges. A number of restaurants will be offering special goodies & discounts just for AFP delegates who make reservations at www.yaletowninfo.com/conference/afp or see the restaurant reservations desk in the registration area by the evening of Monday, April 2.

Yaletown’s converted heritage buildings are now home to a dense mixture of condominium and loft residences, some of the city’s top fashion and design shops, cutting-edge restaurants, cafés and bars, late-night entertainment and destination retail boutiques. Described as “Canada’s hippest neighborhood” and a “foodies delight,” Yaletown sets the table with more than eighty restaurants and cafés, with menus to suit every taste.

Yaletown is a healthy walk or a quick cab ride from the center of downtown Vancouver, and is situated along the new Canada Line subway (YaletownRoundhouse station). There’s also going to be a welcome area at Yaletown Park. The Yaletown Team will be wearing branded jackets and will welcome guests, tour them to their restaurant of choice and answer any questions that they may have. You just have to make your reservations first by going to www.yaletowninfo.com/conference/afp.

There will be a series of welcome AFP signs throughout the dining district, as well as AFP door signage at every participating restaurant. This will assist diners to locate their restaurant and orient themselves to the district.

This dynamic neighborhood is home to Zagat five-star-rated restaurants, many of which have also received “Golden Plate” awards, annual “Best of” awards and have even competed in international chef and bartender events. The chefs of Yaletown are as inventive and unique as the fashionable boutiques and gift shops of the area.

HT1: Winning Conversations We often fall into the trap of focusing so much on the details of the goals and progress of our organization that we use the same conversations to promote it without taking the necessary step to hand-tailor our donor conversations to truly resonate with individual personalities and lifestyles. Through numerous dialogues and real success stories this session will provide concrete examples of turning the repetitous conversations we have with donors into dynamic and engaging conversations that will solidify our relationships and expedite the time it takes to cultivate, ask and steward these donors for their lifetimes.

12:15pm - 1:00pm BUZZ6: A New Era in Fundraising: Expectations Changed by Innovation How do you engage with donors? Has it become more challenging because of today’s rapidly changing innovation? With so many distracting and competing sources for attention, contributions and volunteerism, nonprofits are facing challenges in gaining repeat and new donations due to changing donor expectations.

How can your organization stand out amongst the crowd and keep up with donor expectations? Donors want to feel valued for their contributions and connected to their causes constantly!

It’s time to start leveraging innovation and stop competing with it. Move away from the transaction relationship that defines many nonprofits to a more social, human relationship. This session will cover utilizing external social media monitoring, CRM Integration, online communities, member scoring and more.

1:15pm - 2:00pm BUZZ1: Flip the Pitch to Attract and Keep Volunteers Members join an organization for varying reasons, but they are never more enthusiastic than in the beginning.

Volunteering is one of the best ways to meet people and scrub the stiff, uncomfortable newness off a membership. Despite the benefits, few organizations have created volunteer roles that ease-in new members or communications programs to let them know what opportunities are available. It takes some time and prep work by your current volunteers, but it will pay off in reduced workload and easier transitions. This presentation will identify what is going wrong in many volunteer relationships and how to structure and communicate opportunities that are focused on addressing the core desire to volunteer.

Millennials have grown up more tech savvy than past generations and expect to be able to connect with nonprofits digitally, but they also want to build a relationship offline. The presentation will connect the 2011 Millennial Study research data with strategies for nonprofits to adapt to better reach this demographic. We will showcase best-practice examples from nonprofits excelling at reaching new donors and building a new approach to engaging the next generation.

DR2: The Joy of Storytelling Every expert says, ‘’Tell stories! That’s how you raise the big money in fundraising!’’ But how? What are the best ways to tell fundraising stories?

Individual fundraising strategy, no matter how good, needs sticky stories. With real examples the session shows how to interview, gather information and turn your story into the kind of “sticky” story that makes people give, whether for major donors, direct-mail letters, websites or on the phone. Participants will leave with a much improved version of their story, and at least one will win a decent prize.

DS6: Connecting With the 3D Donor As fundraisers, we all speak to our donors’ brains. Some of us speak to their hearts. Very few of us have a clue how to speak to their souls. Yet, our donors live their lives, moment to moment, in all three states. In order to form deep and loyal human connections with our donors we need to learn to “speak in 3D”. More than that, your donors are well aware that they live in 3D. Our original quantitative research in Canada tells us that 78 percent of donors say that their giving is an extension of their spiritual beliefs, and 93 percent of donors say their giving is an essential part of their human experience. Donors want to hear from charities in 3D, and it’s incumbent upon us to learn how to speak in this language.

The seven passion tools are brought to life by means of the printed word, visual images, storytelling and compelling video.

Participants will laugh many times, and cry at least once.

DS7: Half the Fun is Getting There: How the Supporter Journey Will Help You Reach Your Goals and Make You Love Your Job Again As development offices evolve to focus more on the lifetime value of a donor, fundraising has become more about the journey than the destination. But are you providing your supporters experiences that continually motivate them to help you thrive? In a world where communicating is complex and every investment is scrutinized, it can be challenging to make supporter experiences meaningful. In this session we’ll coach on how to move beyond “donor management” to the “supporter journey” where you will use storytelling, targeting, personal interaction and ongoing cultivation to capture the hearts and minds of your supporters for a lifetime.

MT9: Donor-Centered Leadership Approved for 1.25 ACFRE Management Credits Backed by four years of research with 1,700 development professionals and more than 8,000 CEOs, board members and donors, Donor-Centered Leadership offers surprising statistical evidence about why good fundraisers move on prematurely and what it will take to keep them on the job longer and working productively. In plain language, author and researcher Penelope Burk shows employers how they can easily measure the real cost of premature staff turnover and the financial benefits of bringing this pressing problem under control. While Donor-Centered Leadership has much to say about fundraising managers and decision makers, it also reveals what young fundraisers want, illustrating an urgent need to help them gain experience more quickly to address the coming exodus of senior practitioners who are verging on retirement. Donor-Centered Leadership also offers sobering insights into leadership volunteers’ lack of confidence about their own fundraising abilities, offering practical solutions on how to turn a hesitant, under-productive board into one that fundraisers are proud to serve.

PG4: The Impending Death of Unrestricted Gifts For the last 30 years, charities have depended on unrestricted gifts from the World War II generations. With the baby boomers in their peak earning years and entering retirement, there has been a significant generational shift in the donor base. In this session, Brian will share the findings from his book with Robert Wahlers, The Philanthropic Planning Companion: A Charitable Giving Guide for Fundraisers and Advisors, exploring why this change in generational cohorts will make unrestricted gifts an endangered species. These changes make it absolutely vital for charities to embrace not only donor-centered fundraising but also a philanthropic planning approach with prospects.

If you want to know how to build a 21st century individual gifts and gift planning program that takes into account the thoughts and behaviors of the next generations of donors, don’t miss this session.

What do shredded files, beach homes and red corvettes have in common? They are all key players in some pretty hair-raising plots involving fund development professionals and the organizations they worked for.

Now more than ever before, we see an overwhelming mistrust and misconduct in the fund development arena.

As donors become increasingly cautious and scrutinize organizations, we are being examined through the public microscope with a great deal of skepticism. This session will candidly discuss some of the issues that many of us have dealt with. It will answer some of the most common questions and misconceptions. The AFP Code of Ethical Principles and Standards has been identified as the most significant benefit of membership in AFP! In fact, one might say that we and our organizations “live or die” by this code.

Distinguished Speaker Series: Lisa Shannon, author of A Thousand Sisters: My Journey into the Worst Place on Earth to Be a Woman Lisa Shannon had what many would consider a good life — a successful company, a fiance, security. But one day, while watching Oprah, she was awakened to the atrocities in the Congo: women gang-raped and demoralized and millions dead from the worst war since World War II. She decided, at that moment, to become an activist and a sister. As the first grassroots activist in the U.S. working to raise awareness of the humanitarian crisis in the Congo, she began with a lone 30-mile run and from there founded Run for Congo Women. Based on her experiences she penned a striking book titled, A Thousand Sisters: My Journey into the Worst Place on Earth to Be a Woman.

CC3: The Joy, Impact and Power of Your Story

CF2: Outcomes, Outputs, and Measures—Oh My!

Nothing is more powerful than first-person stories about how your agency is changing and saving lives. Yet nonprofit professionals often assume that donors fully understand the reasons why their organization needs funding. Stories have an inherent capacity to engage our emotions because they are about the irregularities in our lives. You will be guided through an interactive journey to understand an easy five-step process for creating a fully developed case statement.

You will know how to select the most effective strategy for capturing, organizing and serving up impactful stories that in turn help your organization increase donor support through a well-crafted and presented case statement.

Proving social impact, measuring success—and “claiming” outcomes has put increased pressures on both the funders and nonprofits of the world. Return on investment (ROI) is important, but charities often find it difficult to really articulate impact. This session will be a panel discussion of leading experts who are in the trenches every day. They will share best practices when it comes to making a case for your cause.

Join your peers for this hands-on, problem-solving, interactive session on how you (and your team) can effectively manage your conflicting responsibilities; successfully manage relationships up down and out, keep your team motivated and your donors on track; while successfully managing your time, energy, resources, and responsibilities and still have a life.

CI1: Rebounding from a Catastrophic Natural Event—The 2011 Texas Range Fires In 2011 nonprofits across the U.S. battled natural disasters. Severe winter storms in the North were followed by flooding with the spring thaw and heavy rains. In the Southwest drought conditions lead to record-breaking fires across many states. April storms spawned tornados farther north than usual and clusters of storms in the Southeast. Internationally NGOs have been taxed to meet the increase in natural disasters from earthquakes and related tsunami waves to hurricanes and droughts. NGO/nonprofit leaders can’t control the obstacles Mother Nature creates, but we can be prepared to handle the aftermath and decrease the impact. In this hands-on session three nonprofit leaders who led their organizations through extraordinary circumstances will share their challenges and the insights that came after the disaster had passed. Through multimedia presentations followed by an opportunity to break into small groups, participants will discuss what they would have done faced with a similar situation.

DR3: Social Networking and Online Fundraising Success

MG3: The Power of Love in Major Gifts Development

Over the past decade nonprofit organizations have been inundated with Internet services and technology options. This session will focus your organization on how it can integrate offline fundraising with online strategies. Content is based on content from the five books Ted has written on this topic.

At its best, philanthropy, love of people, requires mutual effort.

Wooing major donors is just a start. Savvy fundraisers continue to earn their donors’ trust and confidence and build long-term relationships with their organizations by lovingly attending to their donors’ needs. How do you discern your donors’ needs?

How do you meaningfully connect with your major donors?

What challenges do you face?

DS5: Strategic Stewardship: CrossChannel Stewardship that Scales In today’s fundraising world, many nonprofits use a variety of stewardship communication channels to reach prospects and donors. Direct mail still plays a key role, online giving continues to increase and social media is growing in popularity. But it’s one thing to acquire new donors; it’s another thing to keep them. Stewardship is both an art and science that’s too often approached using the same tactics year after year, simply because those tactics have worked before. Now, more than ever, nonprofit leaders need to evaluate the wealth of available donor data to see how it might encourage a new strategy.

MT6: How Many Chefs Does it Take to Run a Small Kitchen?

Why is it that some small nonprofit boards tend to get mired down in crises and create a feeling of dysfunction? Are these familiar issues for you: lack of fundraising experience or the desire to do so; resistance to change; focusing on the “little” picture and forgetting the big one; or micromanaging staff?

Your board members may have the best of intentions, but you must help them put “FUN” (First-class Understanding of Nonprofits) into the board’s “DysFUNction.” It’s like running a kitchen with a lot of cooks and even more recipes. Your board requires guidance from both the CEO and CDO, the “chefs” who must work as a TEAM to lead the cooks and make the “kitchen” experience even better for the volunteers and for the organization.

This interactive session will allow participants to share their own experiences, hear case studies and practice various learning tools in creating a positive experience of change for boards in search of that “FUN.” This session is an excellent experience for development professionals, executive directors and volunteer board members of small nonprofits facing volunteer leadership challenges.

Bust the myths and get started on planned giving with your annual fund donors.

But one day, while watching Oprah, she was awakened to the atrocities in the Congo: women gang-raped and demoralized and millions dead from the worst war since World War II. She decided, at that moment, to become an activist and a sister. As the first grassroots activist in the U.S. working to raise awareness of the humanitarian crisis in the Congo, she began with a lone 30-mile run and from there founded Run for Congo Women. Based on her experiences she penned a striking book titled, A Thousand Sisters: My Journey into the Worst Place on Earth to Be a Woman.

CF3: Raising More Money From Your Business Community Is corporate philanthropy dead or dying? If so, how can we resurrect it? Today’s economy is challenging for corporations, individuals and especially for nonprofits. If your organization is wondering how to best approach businesses in a challenging economy, this session will be one you don’t want to miss. Although corporations and businesses contributed less than 5 percent of all philanthropic dollars last year in the United States, much more is given through gifts in kind, corporate sponsorships and the personal donations of individual corporate leaders. And, in a typical capital campaign, businesses often provide a much more significant percentage of the overall goal. stay connected: afpmeet.org

However, many nonprofits fail to touch their local business community for a variety of reasons. Based on research for a new book, this session will discuss the challenges facing corporations today and how nonprofits can develop win-win situations to encourage corporate philanthropy. We will discuss how to approach corporate leaders, how to motivate them to become involved in your organization and how to develop a corporate appeal.

This session will identify eight common assumptions about religious giving in the United States and will examine their validity.

DR4: If You Build It, They Might Not Come: How to Fail Informatively

DS9: Cutting Edge Face-to-Face Fundraising From Around the World

Your donors and volunteers demanded it, you built it, and then they’ll come! Is all lost? When a Web-based campaign fails, what’s next? Your secret to future success is learning the art of failing informatively. Our panel will share examples of Web-based fundraising projects that initially did not meet expectations, often with miserable results and a negative return on investment. But, in an environment where experimenting, testing, learning and correcting is encouraged, even just a small tweak to a failed project can produce dramatically different results, as long as quitting isn’t an option. Part therapy session, part educational session, we will explore tactics to create a healthy work environment for failure, nonthreatening methods to analyze failed projects, what do to with a board or boss who won’t accept failure and how to create actionable plans to try (and try) again. Not attending might be the utter failure.

Face-to-face fundraising has been the single biggest new tool used for recruiting regular committed donors in the world over the last decade. It is now used in more than 35 countries in Europe, the Americas, Asia and Australia. It has enabled local and especially international NGOs and UN agencies to start raising significant funds in markets such as India, China, Thailand and South Korea as “traditional” tools, such as direct mail, struggled. This session will take you on a whirlwind tour featuring the cutting-edge best practice in the use of this powerful committed donor recruitment tool; illustrate how it has been successfully integrated with other programs such as telephone and new media; how to best retain and develop your F2F recruited donors and the future challenges for F2F fundraising.

MT1: Restructuring Your Shop to Do More With Less Shrinking traditional resources combined with all-time high client and NPO needs can create tremendous stress on a development office. In this real-life case study, a newly hired executive director of development at a community college is tasked with redefining the development office’s traditional structure to address the expanding needs of the college — and to do it in six months with a flat budget.

Facing a 25 percent budget reduction in state resources and limited time to implement changes, the college needed major changes fast. Based on this recent example, you can learn how to conduct a task audit of the existing structure to determine what the staff is spending time on and how those efforts support the strategic goals of the institution. Then put on your creative hat and research options to find efficiencies that support the strategic plan while allowing the opportunity to grow team effectiveness — that is, get more friends and funds.

This case study will focus on the Silver Ball Gala, raising $800,000 (net) immediately after the market crashed in September 2008, with more than 550 guests in attendance, and growing to $1.5 million (net) by 2011. This presentation will focus on how this relatively small shop raised these significant friends and funds through harsh economic realities and evolved the event to a friend-raising event staple, citing specific examples and offering valuable tips from learned experiences.

CD7: Bridging the Gap: Millennials and Boomers Working Together to Get Things Done and Create Change Over the next decade, more than 640,000 senior positions at nonprofit groups will become vacant, as a wave of baby boomers retires and nonprofit groups expand their operations.

Stepping into their shoes will be the next generation of leaders, including millennials. These two generations have vast differences in communication styles, expectations and needs. It is critical that the two learn to work together to not only make their organizations successful but also to build the leaders of tomorrow through the guidance of the leaders of today. Join us in this interactive session as we explore the differences in leadership and communications style, needs and more of the boomer and millennial generations in order to aid us in becoming more effective today and in the future.

DS2: Be Creative and Authentic— A Performance that is Memorable, Comfortable and Produces Results Too slick or too polished—under-rehearsed or uncomfortable—a bad performance on either end of the spectrum can cost an organization the much-needed gift. How can approaches from the arts enable the professional fundraiser to deliver a more effective and memorable performance?

How can these strategies be utilized for training a core of volunteer solicitors to be effective co-stars? How can creative thinking emblazon on donors’ memories a relationship they wish to sustain? This session looks at tactics utilized by professional performers to overcome their own limitations to not only effectively communicate with the intended audience but leave them wanting more. Participants will gain general knowledge and specific examples to enhance their effectiveness in making asks, to increase volunteer solicitor comfort, as well as to create a memorable and meaningful experience for the donor.

MG7: Philanthropy and Major Gift Fundraising in Asia: Myths and Realities All the indicators point toward China overtaking the U.S. as the largest economy in the world in five to ten years time, and India may not be that far behind. Asia represents half the population of the planet and will over time represent half its wealth. But massive inequalities in wealth and opportunities are already apparent and are likely to get worse. Could philanthropy be one way to reduce inequalities, address some real social needs and build a better sense of social cohesion? Bill Gates and Warren Buffett certainly believe so and have invested considerable efforts in getting the new billionaires of China and India to think more about giving some of their wealth away. However, the big problem in Asia now is a lack of understanding about the process, developed over many years in the US, by which nonprofits cultivate relationships.

MKT6: Building Community— The Future for Individual Fundraisers Social media - wonderful for people to talk to each other but, so far, not much money. Time to think again! Perhaps it’s the outcome, closer communities, not the medium that has the potential. And anyway, the days of using single media are well gone. Multi-channel rules! In this session, and backed by recent research, Stephen will explore the opportunities and dangers of creating communities. He will demonstrate how the use of multiple and integrated media will transform fundraising, outlining twelve techniques that very few charities in the world are yet using - things that in five years time will be mainstream. Getting there will require the combination of new technologies with rock-solid direct-marketing fundraising.

Now, that is exciting...but definitely scary.

Approved for 1.0 ACFRE Management Credits Does your board of directors know how to evaluate success in fundraising? Do you have a method for clearly and confidently presenting fundraising evaluation data to the board and CEO? Through development of a “management dashboard” that reports data supporting best practices in fundraising, you can help your board focus on the right things, rather than distracting themselves, and you, from doing what is needed. Learn how to develop performance metrics and to report them succinctly so that your board will ask the right questions and your team will improve fundraising effectiveness.

Has your board or organization understood its basic fiduciary duty to be proactive and take steps to prevent fraud and ensure ethical behavior? Do you know about the “Top Ten Ways to Get Your Nonprofit into Trouble?” This session deals with all these issues, as well as the increasing scrutiny of the sector by state attorneys general, the IRS and the media. This topic has some urgency, given recent cases and past congressional hearings.

How widespread is fraud in the nonprofit sector? Is your organization vulnerable? As a fundraiser, do you have a duty to inquiry and perform due diligence on potential nonprofit clients or to alert existing clients to the IRS’s best practices check-list? Do you or your board members understand the “duty to dissent?” The objective of this session is to be constructive in examining both changing public policy issues and ethical dilemmas.

Donor-based segmentation has evolved into a fundraising best practice. Reunion class giving. Parents’ fund. Emerging leaders.

Women have become a fundraising force to be reckoned with, as nearly half of the wealthiest individuals in the U.S. are females. Dee Vandeventer will share key strategies to create and sustain a women’s giving initiative. Through these two case studies, participants will learn how the 12-year-old ISU program experienced increase in women’s giving by 65 percent; and how, for the other, the women’s initiative now represents 10 percent of the overall campaign goal, achieved in just three years. We’ll examine the psychology behind women’s giving through the ages, pertinent research, the challenges of “selling” the concept to a mostly male board and the amazing impact a women’s giving program can have on the overall advancement efforts.

Rewire to Inspire Fundraisers and nonprofit professionals need to stay up to speed with today’s technology and techniques, plain and simple. New web tools, apps and social networks can bring you up close and personal to your supporters in ways we never thought possible. What do donors want? Why do they give? How can you capture their imagination? The AFP TechKnow Conference will provide you with strategic ideas and practical solutions in the areas of social media, knowledge/ database management, marketing and communications and of course, technology.

It’s time to “rewire” your thinking in order to “inspire” your donors for years to come.

Rewire your thinking for inspired results!

The Actors Fund Responding to Essential and Evolving Needs The Actors Fund is a national human services organization that helps all professionals in performing arts and entertainment in times of need, crisis, or transition. With an array of social, health, housing, and employment services, The Fund is a safety net for this community of writers, make-up artists, directors, stagehands, dancers, musicians, and more. While these professionals are used to ups and downs in their careers—more so than people in other professions—the economic downturn and industry changes have made The Fund’s programs more critically important. To address this challenge, The Actors Fund raised more than $10.1 million to significantly enhance its current endowment, immediately improve and expand its key programs, as well as strengthen its emergency financial assistance fund.

CCS is proud to partner with The Actors Fund to help support the performing arts and entertainment community.

Top: (l-r) Jonathan Tisch, Annette Bening, and Kevin McCollum led the special campaign.
