SUMMARY:Fireside Chat: Turning data into donations - What are smart nonprofits doing differently in 2026?
DESCRIPTION: EVENT OVERVIEW\nJoin us to learn how better tools & AI are reshaping fundraising as we know it.\nHas this year felt a bit different when running your campaigns? Fundraising isn’t just harder – it’s fundamentally different. Donor behaviours have shifted\, acquisition is more expensive\, and internal teams are stretched thin\, even more so then usual. Many nonprofits are sitting on valuable data but lack the tools\, or time\, to turn it into donation action.\nThis 30-minute online Fireside Chat is for fundraisers and nonprofit tech leaders in Australia and New Zealand who are rethinking how they work in 2026. You’ll hear how organisations like yours are using purpose-built technology to simplify donor management and how they are tapping into AI to drive more relevant\, timely giving journeys. \nYou don’t need to be a data expert. Join our practical discussion on using smarter tools to make fundraising easier\, more strategic\, and your campaigns harder to ignore. \n			\n				Register Now\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				KEY TAKEAWAYS\n\nWhy traditional CRMs and data strategies are holding fundraising teams back\nWhat a modern donor engagement stack looks like in 2026\nHow structured donor data enables more personalised\, higher-converting communications\nHow AI helps treat every donor like a major donor\, with timely\, tailored communications.\nPractical ways nonprofits are removing tech barriers to boost giving and reduce admin.\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				WHY ATTEND\n\nYou’re drowning in data but still struggle to get the right insight at the right time\nYour team spends too much time pulling reports and lists\nYou want to grow recurring giving and donor lifetime value – but not sure how to do this with your system\nYou’re curious about using AI for fundraising\, but don’t know where to start\, or how to make it work for your cause\n\n			\n				Register Now\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				EVENT HOSTS\nJoel CohenNonprofit Specialist\, Microsoft | Board Member \nHarry CuthbertPresales Consultant\, Walkerscott and Klevr Fundraising \nMatthew PaulSales\, Walkerscott and Klevr Fundraising \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Register for the webinar today!\nRegister Here: Click here. \nFor more information\, please contact us.
