TRACK • Emerging Issues & Global Trends

Future proofing your fundraising – exploring Gen Z and the power of giving in online spaces

Thursday 29 Feb 2024 - 4:00 pm to 5:00 pm

  • General Fundraiser (all fundraisers)

Preparing for your new generation of givers. It is estimated that by 2025, Gen Z will make a quarter of the global workforce, and they will put money and effort in a cause that they believe reflects their values best. According to the latest World Economic Forum research, Gen Z has a strong desire for progressive leadership with a vision for sustainable prosperity. Here, we will cover a few ways to ensure your messaging resonates with this audience and other important issues that they are interested in.

Transparency and authenticity are key. There have been major shifts in donors’ attitudes in regular giving since COVID happened. According to Deloitte’s annual survey on millennials and Gen Z, people want to see specificity where their money is going and they want accountability. Here, we will cover a number of ways to authentically engage your audience – and it goes beyond just reporting the peaks or highlights your organisation has gone through. Embrace technology. The future of giving is becoming increasingly borderless and exciting.

Since taking the reins at Cure Cancer in 2018, Nikki has taken the lead in investigating and embracing new technology because people often look for a variety of ways to give that work for them, and we will continue to improve on that. We’ve also seen a 403% increase in digital revenue starting in 2019, and we’re looking to grow quickly in that space in the next few years.
